Same as diver's chrono then. my oris is the same. it moves upwards as you unscrew. only if it is completely unscrewed then can you press the pusher.Jeryltan wrote:It moves as u unscrew. Doesn,t move freelyrogue_hog wrote:
you're saying the screw/ nut itself is the sleeve? it slides slides freely up and down the pusher when it's unscrewed? or dose it move up the pusher when unscrewed? if it's the latter, then it's similar to diver's chrono.

Re: Racing Themed Watches
Oh. My bad. Rogue was right. Te pushers only activate when i release the lock. So it works the same way as the crown. Paiseh for the misunderstanding :p
From the way it was designed it lookd more like the other way round :p

As for the rubber strap, ok la... Panerai, AP Royal Oak Offshore and some other brands also give rubber straps at their price points
Re: Racing Themed Watches
Yup, refinishing pad. It's like a cloth then you go over the scratched area over and over until the scratches are smoothened out.Ed.YEO wrote:REFINISHING PAD? So... no chemicals used in the process?

Price inclusive of shipping is 15+SGD (if i remember correctly)
If you wanna try it out, can meet up and you try it out before you decide whether you wanna buy but IMO the material of the refinishing pad is similar to that of the green 3M scrub leh, but maybe not as rough.

Re: Racing Themed Watches
Cape cod cloth is used on polished surfaces, don't think can be used on brushed surfaces, else will polish off the brushed finishing.fireal wrote:Referring to polishing cloth like cape cod?

But if you're saying that the function of the refinishing pad, then yes the function is similar to the cape cod cloth, to remove scratches but on brushed surfaces instead of polished surfaces.

Re: Racing Themed Watches
Personally... i'm more to the PANDA. Seems to be a better partner to my GP Chrono.
Unfortunately ahh..... ..... .....
The models above are limited editions designed specially for an AD elsewhere...
Design just recently approved and sent for production... maybe delayed release till... erm... December?

From one of the latest reply posted in their FB... i google translate... got this...from the original...While the design is finalized and submitted to the manufacturer or nenacení but estimated amount should be somewhere between 850 to 950 euros.So... the design just finalized? And just sent for production? Will that makes.... uhm... December release?Kým nie je dokončený dizajn tak nám to výrobca ani nenacení ale predpokladaná suma by sa mala pohybovať niekde medzi 850 až 950 EUR.
