Crepas Le Grand 1200M

Post by kempoman » Fri Aug 20, 2010 7:46 am

I discover this on TLex blog,
http://oceanictime.blogspot.com/

Myself is quite reserve on homage things but this one starts to grow in me. I like pillow case diver watch like the oldies Omega, Doxa or Super Kontiki, etc. Also, the initial offer sounds fair but not the actual retail price.

What do you guys think?

You knew they were coming though, right? As soon as you saw Helson come out with one, you know that a ton of new watch brands will be springing up.

Hello to alls ¡¡¡¡

The Le Grand will have only a black dial. We have not in mind color variants in dial.
The Le Grand comes with a silver facets hands, but all customers will receive a second kit of hands with the classic color: white second and hour hands and orange minute hands.

We thought to do 100 Le Grand more with dark blue dial and bezel... but now we are working in our second project.

We would like to say the Le Grand is supplied with a mesh bracelet, with an Italian rubber strap and with a black NATO... and more surprises.
