Even if they do rep it... i wouldn't know how to wear it in public. Most watch enthusiast would know that it is a sole production piece.
but then again, how many watch enthusiast would u meet just strolling down the street :nerd:

I really like the straight end links on this model. In fact that would make a nice mod to my existing bracelet on my black bay.

Does anyone know where I could get some end links like the ones above?

It's probably using the Tudor Ranger bracelet. All it would take to rep this is a gloss black dial and new print, new hour hand and bezel insert with red triangle if they use the same black bezel and tube black bay fantasy model available.

I think you're right Mprezya, I hadn't realised.

Hmmm, I wonder if I can get some Ranger end links, and whether they'd integrate with the existing BB bracelet?

Here it is on a Crown and Buckle blue horween leather nato with gold hardware.

As for locating the bezel and crown tube it may be best to just find the black version and buy it. Once I saw the new Black Bay One I almost thought they finally announced a version like this till I saw it was a one off with gloss black dial with red text, stick hour hand and red triangle on the black bezel. This definitely looks great as you can see and I debate keeping or selling it sometimes though I love the look it's still a fantasy model.

Also pretty sure the Ranger bracelet is the same width 22mm as the black bay. Just get a Ranger and swap bracelets.

Looks like the Black Bay One smashed even the highest estimates and sold for 375,000CHF (just under $373,000 USD). That's over 100 times the catalog estimate of 3500 - 4500 CHF. Chatter on the watch forums was that it might go into the six figures, but obviously that wasn't a problem.

A beautiful watch and a great cause.

Is this rep or the gen?

Looks very beautiful.

Thanks

It was a rep as the bezel doesn't have the red triangle. It was the old rare silver dial black bezel replica and had the dial/hands swapped to the Rose Gold/gilt dial. Then the Black Bay One was shown and a few months later the Black Black Bay.

I hope they rep this. I would buy it and wear it in a second.

May I ask where you got the dial/hands and the Rose Gold/gilt dial to replace the silver dial? is the black silver rep still available?

The previous owner ordered from a TD both the silver black TBB and the replacement hands and dial. While it was with me I swapped out the Asian eta clone with a real ETA 2824-2 as the clone had keyless issues which I had fixed and used in a different watch.
