lanikai Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 chrgod has done a great review on these BCE's and I have had a growing attraction to the white dials.. I have stayed with the stick dials as the numerals looked like overkill on the darker dials.... but I kept looking back at the BCE with white dial and numerals as fitting well together.. I am very please with the result of the dial colour with the silver numerals as opposed to the stick dial... by the way the hands look black but are in actuality silver.. as Italiano has noted with his genuine "Skyland" It is a double AR, but with the white dial .. the royal blue -purple is not as prominent as the darker dials.. it still is prominent when catching light at an angle though, it is unmistakably double AR coated.. The colour on the dial itself .. seems to lighten with soft light.. when in soft light the colour is almost champagne.. and a very clean and bright white in the daylight.. interesting contrast . i rather like the different shades according to the lighting.. And the gator grain brown strap will be put on , (or maybe not ) until my HK Tan alligator deployment arrives.. anyway nuff said here are the pics if anyone is pondering getting the white dial with numerals Lanikai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rower Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 I got so excited when I saw this post because I thought it was for sale. I was already to pull the trigger once I found the price. Unfortunately, it was not for sale. Probably a good thing as my wife would kill me for spending the money that is earmarked for Christmas on yet another watch. Yes, I am an adict...at least I can admit it. Thanks for sharing that beautiful watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rolexman Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 (edited) Do put on a brown gator.. it will look sweet on this watch. Th AR is exactly like the gen. My neighbour owns a gen white BCE and his AR is also somewhat pink/plum. The less noticeable AR is normal on a white dial. Install al lello date wheel and you'll have a 99,99% perfect rep. Wear it well friend! Edited December 5, 2007 by Rolexman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Beautiful watch, Lanikai! It seems like the dial is much better on yours. The concentric pattern on the subdials are deeper than on mine. Also, the pearl is greatly improved.. Interesting! I will link this in the BCE-review! I have wanted another BCE for a while. Preferably blue dial with numerals, but I have not seen it out yet! :smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wear it well friend! Thank you, and yes sir.. HK Tan ..... I have a dark brown and a black deployment in the airspace above the east coast at the moment getting closer to Hawaii and Lellos DW's arrived yesterday .. soon this watch will be making it's pilgramage to Canada to see the Zig Doctor.. Add on : this white dial with D-AR has me mezmerized.. it has many different hues in different lighting.. although as you know the double AR is not as prominent on a white dial... but what does happen is in florecent lighting it gives a magenta hue.. and will switch to purple/royal blue,when i face the crystal to the window with sunlight cracking through.. or as you put it plum... i do believe people around the coffe shop that i was at thought me strange because i sat in front of my LT and could not take my eye's (over pure enjoyment)_ of my watch, turning it in all directions .. totally oblivious to people around me..

The Red Baron Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Hey did you get it from Joshua recently? Last I heard he was out of the ultimates, which this does appear to be as it has the small tick mark next to the "10" on the upper chrono.

jdkno Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 I have wanted another BCE for a while. Preferably blue dial with numerals, but I have not seen it out yet! :smile: Not sure if this is the one you were after but here you go. Blue dial w/ numbers, silver white subdials, and double AR. Looks exactly the same as Lanikai's only blue main dial instead of white. http://www.pc-80108.com/bl10086-chronomat-...800-p-2174.html Hey did you get it from Joshua recently? Last I heard he was out of the ultimates, which this does appear to be as it has the small tick mark next to the "10" on the upper chrono. If I am not mistaken only the stick dials were missing the tick mark next to the 10. If you compare the subdials on the stick dials vs. the ones with the numbers the printing on the sub dials is different. Stick dials have 10, 20, and 30 on them in bigger print, where the number dials have 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30 on them in smaller print.
