Shouldn't really do this as he is not a dealer here, but people will want to know this and I'm sure it will be discussed anyway

I'll leave it with ye :D

they're very similar to the LM...

the orange dials at the top left looks pretty clear though

but I hope i'm mistaken...!!

Just curious but how can you tell by those pictures that the HE valve is off ? I think it might just be the camera angle.

Yep, agree dave, impossible to tell from that angle. I'll like to think they'd have learned their lesson and not fell for that one again ;)

...the first thing that did pop out at me was the dw is a little weak, typical rep dw, ..but at least it's replaceable, and pearl will be interesting when we have a closer look, ...but at same time, the watches look outstanding, the dial/hands and bezel look very good and they will be fully superlumed also. It will be really interesting to see the caseback!

More details and specifications and 1:1 comparison pics will be out soon enough.

they're very similar to the LM...

the orange dials at the top left looks pretty clear though

but I hope i'm mistaken...!!

These are 1:1 based, as in gen deconstructed for the replication, the LM was never a 1:1 based, although it did have a nice dial they just used the 5th gen based case for most of the replication.
I do hope these are good too though! ;)

;) yep, they sneaked up on on us jsizzie, wasn't expecting anything for at least 4 or 5 months. I'd say it will be after CNY before official release anyway so should be plenty of info on them over the next month.

...and then we will hit CNY bang on, so a few weeks realistically until these are in the hands.

Angle be damned, the He valve looks to be in the wrong spot. :(

Don't think so P4, if it was it would be a disaster, would be very surprised if they got that simple task wrong on a 1:1 type project. Not always easy to tell He location from pics, they can be very deceiving depending on photo? Either way we'll know soon enough.

Pic of gen, He valve looks well off, it's just angle again.

Post on other forum....a few nitpickers already!

Can't believe the nitpickers either :O I'm a nitpicker, but already, from one single obscured promo pic? Give it a few days!

btw mod, I spelled Grapevine wrong any chance I could correct that or just remove it altogether and just title "New 1:1 Superlumed PO ceramic 8500 reps" or similar.

Dunno, it's a good question, estimates are around $350-$400 but that's really just speculation, probably similarly priced to AP diver/JLC diver etc. God damn these are gonna be popular though!
