Got my moonie today and its just like the pics. I'm impressed with watch except two things. The flip lock band does not stay locked (on either end) and there's a small gap where the band and the base of the watch meet and the 2nd thing its a quartz. Overall though for $88 USD its one heck of a watch. Other than the quartz movement this watch rocks. Does anyone know if I can slam an automatic movement in this thing (i'm so use to the glide of the hands)? However For $88 bucks it was worth the try and I'm really not disappointe. My wife wants me to get one for her father. Thanks Watcheden for a quality product. Shipped to my house via airmail in 10 days. I'll post pics later.
Glad to see youre doing better Lani. I remember buying my first rep in Hawaii, of course back then I didnt know anything. It was a Rolex yatchmaster and it was surprisingly an automatic. Ill have to dig it out. I got it from where? Where you get most of everything in Hawaii? Aloha stadium. Boy do I miss the banana lumpia.
PS I paid $60 bucks for it
Id buy this in a heartbeat for under $300

Rep was my first thought as well. Not a pro-hunter and not a Bamford and Sons. And as already pointed out the date font just doesnt look right. I'm curious, whats the mangnification on the new 16610 pro-hunters? Its not 2.5 is it?
Call me crazy but I just looked down and the thing is working. I think it's jealous of the Submariner classic I got from Josh that Ive been wearing everyday (best sub out other than MBW). Darnest thing ever. Always something. Well if anyone has any ideas on what might have occured Im all ears.
Guys purchased a pro hunter submariner form Josh last month and Ive worn it maybe 4 times. I went to set the time today and wound it and nothing. Second hand wont even budge. I can hear the rotor spinning but hand not even moving. Anyone have any ideas? Im at a loss. Always a problem
Its kind of expensive but it has some neat features, fricker case, great lume, bezel read for yourself.

Brah you had better not be lounging down at Ko' Olina down at the lagoon # 3 while were up here feeling sorry for you . If youre not down there you should be. Put it on my tab room 615. I wish you a speedy recovery brother.
If you look at www.rltwatches.com and http://www.westcoastime.com/regstrapfrom.html the Patriot Strap (#26) and the other (yellow, blue, red) I cant identify are both 20mm. I own them both and they are thick like the Martac strap. Get them youll be pleased.
