I'm interested in a safari with hornback - but, will it have the correct movement? i believe its supposed to be seconds at 12 instead of 6.

Correct me if I am wrong...The MBW's AP ROO are supposed to come with the low beat 21,600 bph Asian 7750 with running second at 9. The sub-dial markings are replicating the gen with the running second sub-dial at 12.

I am interested as well if the price is right...Black dial with bracelet is my choice...

With so many people stating that price is an issue... pamfried, why don't you state a rough estimate of where you think the GB will fall, figuring 18 buyers...

Is it $300, $300-350, $350-400, $400-450, $450-500, over $500?

You must have some idea of what the range we are looking at is....

isn't this watch supposed to have the sec running @12:00? that is a major flaw to me.

I agree LOS I don't want to get my hopes up only to be told they're going for 550.00 at which point I say I'm out.

Yes, that is a major flaw...There is a version from MBW with the correct running second at 12 but the last I heard is over $3000...There are rumours that a new more economical modified Asian 7750 version coming with the correct sub-dial position but it remains a rumour for the longest time...The sad fact is, even we have this version, it may be just as un-reliable as the second at 6 movement that are used in the Daytona....

I guess we all have to accept this flaw for the time being....

Well.... the seconds at 9 versus 12 is a known flaw... otherwise the watch is amazingly finished... I've had the opportunity to wear one...

We do need to know the price range before this can be seriously considered... If it comes in at the $500 range, I can see a lot dropping out...

I would be in for a black on bracelet, but not for $500.

The rumor was that the seconds at 12 version was going to be jewelled like the bentleys with seconds at 3 and very reliable (for an asian 7750). But since it still isn't out I doubt it will be out anytime soon or that we will see it in the mbw version.

I will be interested in the following:

1) Volcano on black hornback X 01 pc
2) EOD on black hornback with yellow stich X 01 pc
3) Safari on brown hornback X 02 pc

only if the price is below the 500 range..... So that will be 4 watches on my side. What happen if there is a problem with the chrono or finishing of the watch?

14000baht or 400usd for a Black Themes?

Which currency conversion gives you that? 2years back?

Anyway if peeps can figure out to think that MBWs are gonna be dirt cheap, pls fall out.

Do you even know there are dealers selling JUST the hornback straps from MBW at 350USD?

I know the price is not finalised but be realistic here. So the hornback is 350 i figure the watch should be worth only 100 to fall with the 500 range.

Cheers!
