Hi, is it correct that there are 2 versions? one is the ceramic one and the other a PVD version? is this true? but essentially its the same watch.

Correct me if im wrong but I think the ceramic was a LE where-as the PVD version is normal production run. If so, I assume that the normal production run costs less than the LE?

but both are ceramic.  The 44mm is the regular edition which debuted at SIHH 2008 while the larger 46mm is the limited edition which debuted at SIHH 2007.

Yes the normal production 44mm version costs less because the 44mm is just a regular chronograph.  The limited edition 46mm is a more complicated rattrapante.

Cheers,
Anthony

Thanks for the info. I tried one on... it was a double split chrono 46mm and PVD thats what my AD told me... is this wrong? I know its the normal production run and not the LE... btw, how can you tell the difference between the PVD and Ceramic? or is there no PVD version at all?

I've edited my post to fix this.

There is no PVD version at all of the Top Gun.  Both models are ceramic.
