That's quick!
My AD said not expect anything here in the UK till September!?! God knows how they are delivering them over here - on the backs of tortoises apparently!

Very quick. My AD said July at the very earliest. Looking forward to seeing some of them in the flesh. |

July? And you're UK based too! Dunno what my AD's playing at saying September.

To my opinion, the watch wears fine. But I am not thin. I could wear that without problem. Retailprices including 20% VAT added. BG Thomas |

Sorry for being unclear earlier - I was not curious regarding the size, but on how the rubber bezel works out when handling the watch. The pics make me think it's a bit ugly, although with some strange charm on them. If this charm grows on you in person, a Chrono-Matic 49 mm could be interesting. I'm also curious, as Driver, about the price (as I haven't been visiting my AD for a while). Retail + VAT is only helpful when knowing the retail price...

 Sorry, I missed the earlier post that Thomas made that said -
"Just received my first two Chronomatic 49 in Steel: Black dial, Ocean Racer black € 4930 Silver dial, Steelbracelet. € 5140 Prices inluding 20% VAT" I guess you missed that one too, Aleister! Sorry Thomas.
I have to say though, that is pretty steep. With the current exchange rate of around EUR0.80 to 1GBP, that puts the Ocean Racer strapped version at £3944 and the bracelet version at £4112! That's almost Bentley territory.

I have to apologize alongside with Driver there - must have scrolled too fast to see the prices. I'm sorry, Thomas. Still, I'd like to know how the rubber bezel is. |

Actually, I went into some AD's a couple of weeks ago and apparently we were supposed to have the new Bentley GMT here is Australia 6 months ago. I queried this as I said I thought it had just been released, and he said we were supposed to have it here first, but he was still waiting for it to arrive in. |
