Magrette Regattare Bronze
Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
Just saw some more real life pictures of this watch. It looks great. It's a shame that the Regattare 2011 has a different design, besides the different colour. This one looks so much better, but I don't like bronze!

Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
Looks like mine has bee sitting in Customs since Friday. Sad. Want watch now. When are those NASA types going to perfect transporter technology?androo wrote:Sent an email as not heard anything. Got this back
So will be another week or so before I see itMy sincere apologies for the delay. We had a lot more interest in the Regattare Bronze than expected, this has pushed or resource but we are trying our best to get everyone's orders out as soon as possible.
It is the weekend here (Saturday), your Magrette will be picked up by courier Monday morning. Once it leaves the country it will show your shipment’s progress.

Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
It's here! It's here! I picked it up this morning and opened it on the bus on the way to work. I'm sure people thought me weird.
Some photos:
With the Box
With the Pouch
The Dial
The Case Back (Which I really really like)
The Wrist Shot
It really like it a lot. I think it wears a shade too big for me, but I think I'm okay with it. We'll see how I feel about it in a week or so.
Hooooray, new watch!

What's your wrist size Peteo?
It looks very nice indeed. It's a shame they don't do a non-bronze version anymore. Thanks for the pics.

Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
My wrist comes in at a shade under 7". Scrawny as all get out. I think I can get used to this one though. Which also makes me hopeful for that 44mm C8 Pilot one day.lostguy wrote:What's your wrist size Peteo?

I definitely will need to change the band at some point though. Not really a fan of the black on brown.

Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
You'll be fine with the C8 Pilot. I manage with 6.5" wrists It's a pretty slim watch at 9.7mm (slimmer than the Reggatare which is probably around 15mm?) and it's true what they say, it wears smaller than it's size suggests.Peteo wrote: My wrist comes in at a shade under 7".

Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
Looking good Peteo. Not sure it suits you though, a tad too large methinks? I'll take it off your hands. Before I do, do you think you could try and obtain a bronze crown? That's the only thing that's mildly visually displeasing. Oh and the museum grade crystal that highway mentioned. Sort that out whilst you're at it, there's a good chap.

Re: Magrette Regattare Bronze
I do think it's a tad big. Like I said though, I think I'm okay with having one watch that skirts on the line. I don't think that it's comically big, so I am leaning toward keeping it.jmarchitect wrote:Looking good Peteo. Not sure it suits you though, a tad too large methinks? I'll take it off your hands.

I do wish that the crown was also bronze. I'm not sure how easy it is to remedy that though. Any thoughts?
