I took the Pro II off, and put the Blue Pro Diver on. I'm heading to a brunch tomorrow, and didn't feel like going in full BLING mode. Took some pics while I was at it. How do you guys like it compared to the PRO II ? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I wasn't a fan of them either till I saw one in person. I had to get it. Finally tracked one down, and I use it quite often when I want to give my Pro II some rest . |

While the images have been deleted, the watch is a Frankenwatch with a fake case and there was intention to decieve the members here that your watch is an authentic Breitling. That's a no-no here, and you will now be banned. |

Bloody hell, obviously I didn't look close enough! Any chance of seeing those pics again just for my piece of mind? Cheers |

Cheers The OP pulled them when he got called out on a replica site for posting them here so they aren't available. It wasn't a standard replica, OP had spent a lot of money on adding real Breitling parts, but the case was still Chinese. |

I just don't get it. |

I just don't get it. My thoughts exactly. What was the tell-tale sign that the case was a fake? On another what about those that add aftermarket diamond bezels, especially those that look like the factory ones. Can that be construed as deceiving members on here? Just curious. |

I think adding an aftermarket bezel is different, it's modifying a real watch, not making one from random parts. As long as it's made known that the bezel is aftermarket if the owner tries to sell it I don't think there'd be a problem. |

I, personally, would never buy a watch that has been modified to a bigger or a lesser extent by a non-OEM jeweler. If you don't like the watch in the first place, why buy it? I go even further: I would never buy a watch with a non-OEM strap or bracelet. It reminds me of those that buy a car, then go on to modify it by their local garage. For example, I hate those that put "Angel-eyes" lights on pre-2001 BMW models, estimating that they look cool or add LED lights just because it is à la mode. I have always privileged the original. Any changes to that by a non-OEM authorized jeweler, mechanic, etc. alters the image of the product, independently of the brand. Just my .02. |

I'm not saying that I like modified watches, I don't...at all. I was just saying that it's not against the rules of the forum to post pics of a watch with an aftermarket bezel and if someone does do this to a perfectly good watch they need to make that clear before they sell it on here. I'm completely with you on the modifying, of watches, but cars...that depends on the car. |
