Wipeout Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 I have one, Breitling-a-like with a clear back and full 'Swiss' automatic movement, it's not going to last forever and the materials used are likely to tarnish but at £35 it's cheaper than an Argos special Decent service from the chap on eBay too, he does reductions in postage if you buy a few so let me know if you are ordering and I might have another Quite like the look of this one Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Quite like the look of this one Here LOL, I'm wearing it right now I had one and sent it back to him because it wasn't keeping the time very well, he swapped it no questions asked - then I realised it was because I had to wind it up now and again as well as having it self-wind. It also arrived without the pic of the aeroplane on the back, he sent me a new back. The only complaint I have with it is that the 'chrono' feature is pointless, one indicates the day of the week by number (1, 2, 7 etc), one the month and one the hour of the day, it's not a true chrono but does record time so he can advertise it as such. Oh and the date goes up to something daft like the 37th It's a nice chunky heavy watch, suits a larger wrist as a result - I really like it - a bargain too!

Wipeout Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 I had a look through all of his watches and that one looked the best, some of the plainer ones are nice to, does the chrono count up correctly or is it for show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 The chrono does nothing but indicate the day of the week and other date stuff, it's no use for timing anything other than the 0-60 of an NA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wipeout Posted October 28, 2005 Author Share Posted October 28, 2005 Ok, cool, what's the kinetic winding like, does it keep it going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 I have a (rebranded Seiko) D&G but it's a 'little' bit more subtle than that one, it doesn't have the 'ganster bling' and the logo is only a few mm high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 lol yep it's a tad bling. If no one wins it I'm gonna keep it. Not normally a one for watches (I have another D&G watch) but I like this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted October 31, 2005 Share Posted October 31, 2005 Do you know if that's a Seiko as well? Just wondering if it's just them that makes them or various different people depending on the style? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wipeout Posted November 7, 2005 Author Share Posted November 7, 2005 Managed to get one brought back from Tunisia, not bad for £12, good quality, usual markings, locking crown, sweeping hand and glass back with kinetic movement. Can't complain at that price, will have to keep an eye out for some others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carl0s Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 Wanted.... I'm after a nice replica watch, one of the guy's from work had a look when he was on holiday but couldn’t find much. Any of you guys -n- gals know where to get any; don't want to be spending loads. Maybe our members abroad can help. Nic do you come across good copies over there? Mods remove if inappropriate. Cheers Dude, check out the forum and photos I've just found at the end of this thread: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?p=609524#post609524 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
