My Gen Tudor vs. My MBW 1680

More Submariner Love for this new Forum:

I received my MBW Red Sub today and am generally over the moon. I have had a lot of help recently from Randy, and he asked me to do a review of these pieces. Seeing as how he is a great guy, here goes.

Pictures Speak Louder Than Words So I played With My New Camera For You!! , like I needed an excuse lol. (Nikon D200)

First off the MBW,

All in All a very nice piece. Main Differences between this and the tudor being the bracelet and also the shape of the CG's and Crystal.

The Size is also different as well the tudor is smaller.

I am happy with the look and feel of the MBW and def deserves it's aura as the best Rollie rep (MBW not the Red Sub Specifically). However one thing bothers me, the bezel is extremely stiff, I mean I can't turn it all the way round when I am wearing it, I have to take it off, that's how stiff it is. I'm sure this will loosen with time but still a bit annoying.

As you can see the MBW has a different king of cut to the crystal it's very geometric in appearence.

All In All, very happy with the MBW and I don't think it looks out of place next to the Tudor and that's in it's as is state, not bad straight out the box.

Hope this has been informative, any questio/comments feel free to let me know, i'm sure you will anyway lol

Sir

What is MBW?

if is a seller, do you emailed me the name (and email address or sinternet site? THANKS

Dear Fellfell

MBW stand for Maria's Best Watches...those watches set standards for vintage reps and are considerably more expensive. Do a search on RWG and you'll find information about those watches
