Hi guys
Seriously thinking of picking up a mint 2007 legende

Just a couple of questions before I go and see in person...

Is the slide rule inner bezel on the white model black or blue? I can't tell from the photos I've seen

And how much would buk charge for a face and bezel coulor change cause I love the copper version as well

Thanks
John

From memory, black, and they would charge a lot. Generally well over $1,000 with the mandatory service, far better to AIT for a bronze (Havana) dial to come up.

:yeahthat on all counts. It never pays (financially) to try to make a watch into what you really wanted all along. Far better to wait for the one you want to turn up for sale.

Hi Errol,

Well, one of the reasons I sold the Legende was the inability to change straps. I did not think it would bother me, but in the end it did.

The Chrono-Matic allows you that option, and I do change it's look regularly. I have the smaller version, not the 49.
