linkukbora Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 I was browsing the dive forum and found this review The writter has pointed out the few spot on flaws(His presumption) on the high end rep and I really doubt of his "presumptuous statement" if he knows what we have here What's your thoughts on his review? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stac Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Nice read. I like the CG side-by-side comparison. I printed them out for future reference and mods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haveblue Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 cheepo - i too thought it was an outstanding comparison. excellent work! i actually learned a few things from the analysis. it also sparked a few questions. you mentioned that the gen SD bracelet has polished sides.....is this true for the gen Sub bracelet too or are they brushed just like the ones on our reps and the one that is on your SD rep?

Edge Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 I believe that the first post was poorly written, and what the publisher of the criticism is pointing out, is that there are some more accurate reps than the one you have compare the gen against. For instance that the MBW has an actual SD case and not a sub case like some of the cheaper reps. I like the comparison and it was well written and very fair. Well done and I wish that more people would take the time to write articles like this. Edge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedoctor Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 That is a very nice comparison. Maybe I have to get myself a seadweller now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheepoguy Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 The guy I borrowed the pic from complained..... jeeez... so I removed it. I can't find the pic I took of my movement so I'm looking for another. May have to just borrow another. @cheepoguy I can't see the last pic of the genuine Rolex movt... can you fix it?

hk45ca Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 that is a very good and informative read. thank you for linking it here. all things considered our reps (the high end ones) are pretty good. when you have to put them side by side to really see the differences thats pretty good. i know there are better reps of this watch but you have to admit our watches overall are pretty accurate for the money.

cheepoguy Posted September 1, 2006 Report Share Posted September 1, 2006 Added a new 3135 movement photo. I wear my rep far more than I wear my gen SD. Doesn't really seem much point in having the gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
