Don't get your hopes up...
I do like this dial. It makes me laugh everytime I see it.[/quote]
Nice idea for a non-ltd.....
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ickler let me down a few years ago. Quoted me one price (in writing) and then when I ordered, invoiced a higher price and wouldn't negotiate. They don't get two chances to do that.
...
Same here.
Not really, I chased it this morning and the date has moved to the 13th. No great surprise there then. :(

It was too good to be true ;)
2 more days......
:twisted:
That poor guy will be haunted by all 30 on the list... :lol: :lol:
It's all ready now, except those dials ;)
I thought it was the 2nd.[/quote]
I'll just sit here and wait...
Hoping Fricker will be able to deliver as they said...
Alas!
Who's the lucky one on the reserve list?
Is it the 1200 meters water-resistant crown from your other divers? Or a conventional crown solution?
Eddie, I can't find the info, but is the system for the crown that's used in the PRS-50 the same as used in the DN?
Or is it the same as used in the PRS-14/18?
Just curious...
Oh well, we just keep hoping for the sub 400 pound solution...
I just don't count on that too much...
"We'll see" is not making a guess, it's sitting on the fence. :P
I reckon it's going to be £550 (with the special mov). That's making a guess. :D

Surely it's got to be less...
Have they been specific about the price as well?? :roll: :roll:
I'm guessing something similar: less than the 14 (lack of anti-mag, lower WR), but more than the 17/18. At the moment, I don't think even Eddie knows.[/quote]
I think the most important and...
Alas, when it comes to German precision, Frickers timelines are a bit off...
Ehm,
Tritium is radioactive. Just like Radium.
So "No radiations" would be incorrect if this stuff was used...
There is some historic importance.
That's the reason for the no rad symbol.
The original FF has been equipped with it as well. Technically, it's correct: the lume will be Super Luminova...
...
I would like to know the price.
I'm also wondering whether the non-ltd. will be made or not...
I suppose some things are the same, all around the globe ;)
I suppose the German holidays are over by now?
I hope they'll finish those dials one of these days!
And to emphasise the importance of the FF-model:
The Rolex Submariner was made after the FF, the FF heavily influenced the design of the Submariner.
Hence, this is the forerunner of the dive...
Do you have pictures of that pre-prod. version?
Would be nice to see the case, lugs, crystal and bezel on a photo instead of a drawing! (Will ignore the dial ;))
