evening all,

am I right in thinking that the only blue dialled Portugese (standard Chrono NOT the power reserve one) was the Laureus special edition of 2000?

I think they come in black, white and panda usually.

The reason I ask is that my sister in law's latest other half wore one to dinner at my house yesterday. I'm always really keen to talk watches but I didn't want to embarrass him should it be a fake; as I think it might be.

please put me straight if I am wrong!

thanks

Evening Vroom,

The Portugieser Chrono did come in blue as a special edition for the Laureus Foundation.



The watch also came in green as a special edition for Boris Becker...

If your sister-in-law is dating someone with a fake watch, wouldn't she be better off knowing now rather than 10 years down the road?

The special edition Laureus Chrono is the best colour combo they ever did this watch in (IMO)

I doubt she'd care. Why should she? It isn't like concealing that he Is a murderer.
