Okay, so the package arrived.
now I am no means an expert, but:
papers look good
hologram on the back of the watch looks great
I have to spin the crown away from me to set the date/time
the watch feels great
And now for the pics I just took after i pulled it out of the box.. hopefully the quality is OK
Hey guys,
Tried asking this in my intro thread a few days ago with no luck, and i'm dying to know the answers..
1. noob watch / noob factory - does this refer to the dealers that sell low quality pieces?
2. WM9 is which dealer?
Cheers,

So to totally contradict my initial post i ended up buying a gen 2-tone sub on eBay. LOL ..
still devouring the site,
Just wondering if you guys could help me with the following terms used on here:
noob / noob factory - does this refer to the dealers that sell low quality pieces?
WM9 is which dealer?
Cheers,
Ferris
Thanks for the feedback everyone.. You bet your sweet ass i'm dying for that package to arrive next week!
I closely studied the latest generation rep vs those pics and one of the more noticeable differences is the second hand, take a look at the size of the round decorations on the the second hands on the rep vs the ebay pic:
Hey Guys,
I joined the forum a few days ago, i've been looking at reps very closely and instead today I decided to bite the bullet and go Gen..
I picked up this '95 model Submariner up on eBay for $5300
How can I tell if its not a rep? It seems like a reputable dealer with papers, if I take it to a rolex dealer can I get them to verify its real?
Let me know what you think
Ps. Did I get an OK deal?
I am in the market for a new watch, And I thought why not get a replica? So i'm here as part of my research campaign.
I'm not necessarily looking for a rolex, I'd like to find something classy like an Omega Planet Ocean
Looking forward to diving in head first
