Eddie is quiet today because his new Belkin N! Vision router is a POS and he's re-installed his Belkin pre-N router which is just fine.

[Glamdring]

Eddie, OT I know but Belkin is rubbish for electronics. Okay for cables and adapters but not the good stuff. Buy a better one. Belkin produces the Krug Bauman of routers.

Just been in a plane for 14 hours ......... (will be two days home before jumping on another plane to Houston.....)
and just checked the forum before trying to get rid of the jet-lag.....

what a nice surprise Eddie, it looks very good and the few spec's visible make this another cause for a successful addition to the line.

Any thought on the release date (You can write me down for one anyhow.. :mrgreen: )
and I hope it will not be an LE...( However if it is #25 please :twisted: ) so no need for feeding frenzy's or disappointments.....

[siddhartha]

I'm absolutely buying this the second it's out (that is, if I can get one of the AS movements!).

Don't care about the number

Eddie, what is the name going to be? There's already a PRS-50 and PRS-50LE. Can I name it? (Expecting a big NO)

hi everybody!
seems that i am not the only one who is pressing the refresh button every 5 minutes on the timefactors "new arrivals".

on the latest news i saw this :

4 updates with news where on fridays
16 times the news came on a saturday
18 times the relase was on a sunday

:albino: make your conclusions.... 8)

[MikeB]

Very very pretty, though I want the old 50 more still, however I have just bought a SB3 after repeatedly saying I didn't like the hour hand, I found that I liked it the more I saw it in pictures, this seems to be common to most of eddies watches, they grow on me (except the 18 always liked that but have not managed to get one yet). Because I have just had to pay for the SB3 anything else will have to wait for now, but for £400 that really is a bargain, have fun trying to grab one of the first 50 though. :D

If you think the photos grow on you, Time Factors watches have always been better than any photo of them I've ever seen.

ive noticed that. why is that?

IME, TF watches are always greater than the sum of the parts (which we, as WISs, are often overly concerned with) and designed to look just right on the wrist. My hypothesis is that photos rarely capture the gestalt of a excellent watch and never capture it's wrist presence. IOW, you have to wear it to fully appreciate it.

[Engi]

Just to understand: will this model (I mean dial and hands) will be availabel also in NOT LE edition ? Which will be its price ?

Thanks,

Engi

[jtbold]

wow, f&^#ing wow

let me think about it, dude.... :P

[Dazzler]

Guys it uses the same case as the original PRS50 which is 22mm (I know it says 24mm) whatsmore it's on the Square Hole Polyurethane strap which only comes in 22mm (and 20mm) (Great strap too).

HTH

[toolio]

oh i see.
thanks, dazzler...

[NYDan]

Can't believe I missed it!!!!!!!

[clicker]

I had the chance to buy one using my blackberry but the web site crashed the handheld at the last stage of check out. I have missed it too ! Snif. :cry:

I hopemore will arrive later even with ETA mechanics or that people will not like them and end up selling on sales corner. :wink:

So, as far as I understand, a new batch of PRS 50 with ETA movement, same dial and hands, will be available, is it correct ? Will it be cheaper ... :roll: ... ?

Regards and I remain waiting for your reply.

Engi

[Dibetu]

If there were only 50 of these with this movement they would be a limited edition, however Eddie notes that more will be in mid July. In this case they are a first batch. Patience my dear Watson, patience!

[stifflersmom]

What a superb looking watch - is there any update on the aged lume version?

[mr1973]

I think Eddie used C3, aged lume just didn't last long enought (as far as I can remember).

[chrisparker]

Fantastic!!

Looks more like C1.

[Bishamon]

Simply stunning! :o

[Paulo]

What a superb looking watch - is there any update on the aged lume version?

Eddie went ahead with C3 because...

The reason he suggested evaluating for 3 months was because he's had experience with aged lume before and he said it's very important to leave it exposed to natural light for at least 3 months to test the colour stability of the lume. It would be a bit of a disaster to produce dials with the desired colour, only to discover that it changes to a non-desired colour.

Give us a wrist shot Eddie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
