Is it just me (or the angle of the pics?) or is the bezel often misaligned, meaning the top screw of the bezel not in line with the 12 o’clock markers?

Saw that in many pics and it would drive me nuts 😅

That has put off me ordering this watch so far.


It is also definitely the angle, same watch, just different angle and in some it looks way worse then in others. So I don't think it's to big of a problem...

black dial looks so good as well
damn, I keep telling myself I have too many black dial watches, but...
Bro, this one is no ordinary black watch, trust me 🙂

Plus it's a nice refreshment after all the standard suspects ( subs, GMTs,... ).

I'm just at my watchsmith's, stickers are off and it's getting sized and regulated. Good times :)

Aaaaand done 🙂



Those black stickers are a goddamn pain it the ass, they leave a ton of sticky goo between the case and the bracelet...2 small links needed to be removed for my 18.5 cm wrist. The movement was regulated to 0.0s/d. We'll see...

I also tried an interesting IWC, it belongs to my watchsmith. It's tiny, but soooo comfortable!

I know removing the stickers is a good sign but I need to ask: are you going to put up for sale the black dial Ingy too?

One more wristie because why not, right?



This is one of the most comfortable watches ever, I love it! And this says a lot coming from a guy who despises integrated bracelet watches ;)

I also just purchsed a V7f Mark XX and i just find that the pilot has more personality than the ingenniuer. I have a perfect v2 white one.
Will be posting if up for sale in the next few days I think.

It's such a good watch but i didnt connect with it.

Interesting...I found Mark pilots to be almost the most boring/vanilla watches I've ever seen. I love them in photos, but it did nothing to me in the metal. Just the opposite of you :) I'm sure someone will buy it in minutes and get one hell of a watch 👍

That's what makes us human right. I have a neo vintage Breitling navitimer that people online hate on but I love the damn thing to bits.

Exactly, I couldn't agree more 👍

Now let's see the Breitling 😁

@AndyDav55 Both stunning, especially the Breitling, I love it! What kind of an idiot hates such a watch is beyond me..Thank you for sharing! Now you got me thinking about Navitimers, thanks for that too...😬🤣
Sorry for a noob question-what size and reference is the Navi? I once tried a gen and it looked like a dinner plate on my wrist, yours looks perfect!
