has anyone bought one of these yet? I'm very tempted to pull the trigger on this little puppy..and the price is a no-brainer.

...but why the lo-beat 7750??? and apart from the large second counter not having red on it (easy fix), is it accurate to the gen?

cheers

Rotor shape is wrong too. Couple that with missing 7750 fine adjuster, they are dead giveaway. Besides, the price is tad too high for an Asian 7750 low beat.

Taka, have you got a pic of what the rotor should look lke please?
Maybe you're right about the price (compared with other 28.8s for less than $250) but its got good AR on it..? :lol:

Anyway, i still like it, but an option for the steel bracelet (gen) would be nice.

Talking of gens.....it is actually quite affordable! hmmmmm

Here are a few shots (gen):

Thanks Carnut!

Uuugh! Now i see a few more flaws!

lack of engraving on the caseback

incorrect graduation printing on the rehaut

no titanium visible....anywhere!

 

[carnut]

I believe the dials come in several varieties so I would not judge the rep too poorly for that. It's really not bad for what it is... not exact or super but decent.

I think takashi is right, price too hi for the movement besides the different rotor and the scratches on it and non engraved case back
I read somewhere that a better rep on this is coming so is better to wait a little more

Hi import,
The rep is not bad at all,

I found a picture of the gen, (the pictures of carnut belongs to the limeted edition)

Hi, thats a nice picture you found!
Yeah i know there's a different version of the TT3; the problem with the rep is that there are quality issues.
Also, details which have been overlooked - see prev. posts.

I went and bought the gen anyway :wink:

 

[javier34]

WOW! Very nice and sporty, congratulations :wink:

the watch is soooo nice in person. a friend of mine actually offer me this watch for 900USD, it was a bargain, but i didnt hv any spare money at that time, hehehehe

That carbon fiber dial is AMAZING! :shock: :shock:

Not a fan of rubber straps. If they offered even the current low-beat movement with the stainless strap, I'd be all over it.

Well picking in silly stuff is pointless. But I must say. you'd think he could have come up with a better picture.Scratches on the rotor? On that note. I'll bet you could grind that thing out and make it look perfect.
