Hi i'm in! Back to the original thread that startd my B&R addiction!

OK so is the one I have the right one? It's got the A2836 in it although I haven't opened it up to confirm. I wouldn't know what to look for anyway.

Excerpt from my email converstion wth Trevor:
"Thank you very much for your order .
This watch with Asia 2892 28800bph had sold out .

Now the factory product the same model watch with Asia 2836 28800bph movement .
And the price is $1XX USD now"

Sorry for not posting here sooner. I didn't want to go off topic.

I'm thinking it might not be the same one SMIDSY recommended.

As said in the other thread I started, the tells are the lugs and the "&" logo on the case back. Probably the crown too.

I forgot to clean the watches first so there's a speck of lint in the groove in the caseback. It's very clean otherwise. It's funny how things are perfect and rosy and then you start scrutinising the Gen and the Rep and then all these things surface.


Here are the pics for convenience...

I talked with Trevor who first told me he could get it and then just stopped answering...
Any news on who can get the new version?
