Sorry it took me so long to get these up here. Its been a busy week!
The watch is by far one of my favorites to look at, but it doesn't get a lot of wrist time. I find myself wearing my Evos and Navis more than anything.

Beautiful color combo. I like the B01 but I just can't get over that box design in the center of the dial. I think it kinda ruins the flow and my eyes are unfortunately drawn to it.

You know what, I agree serge. But the honest truth is that the square on mine is much more subtle in person, the pictures make it look pretty drastic

Same with the guilloche on the Chronomat. In pics it looks rather pronounced and like a bullseye!. In person it simply gives a subtle texture and shimmer to the dial.

I quess I don't live in a macro world.

haha neither do I. I really do love the blackeye grey, but if I could trade it for blackeye blue, I wouldn't think twice about it.

I didn't know they made any B01s with a brushed bezel besides the new LE. Interesting...I like it.

I like it. Nice mix of brushed bezel and grey, with a tad of red and the polished bracelet.

Come on Serge, start thinking out of the box man :lingsrock:

Anyway I know what you mean. Although I own a B01 Blackeye Grey aswell I had to get used to the box in the middle and that took me a few weeks. At this point I even never notice the box being there in the middle of the watch .

To be honest : no big fan of brushed bezel on the polished version like posted here :poke:

I thought the blackeye blue was my favourite dial until I saw it in person next to the grey... then I changed my mind! I love blue dials, but for some reason the grey and black go really well together on the chronomat b01.

Great pics btw.

Well its a good thing they make it polished for you then!.. :poke: I personally couldn't stand the look of the B01 bezel until they introduced it brushed.

Dude, you gotta learn how to quote people...those weren't my words, they came from windicator. Edit your post.

Also, I noticed you're selling this watch on another board...how come not here? I had great success selling some of my ling collection on here....not gonna give the B boys a chance to snatch this up?

I need to learn how to quote people? Are you serious? I've done it many times without an issue, I must have overlooked that it said your name on there. No big deal...
I placed it up for a day on another forum to see what kind of feedback I would get, but its no longer for sale.
