wonderful reply my friend.

no idea, but i needed this model specifically for a frankensub i'm building, and i didnt want to take any chances.

[censored] thats amazing.......i'm coming

did you tell him that HE must be a fake cause he had a ridiculous lack of knowledge??

or did you just eat him?

and while i was writing my last message to him i thought that maybe, it would be helpful for some people here to read. this is not meant to insult or upset anyone, just sharing some thoughts and observations.

"i think people are just lazy. to be honest, i enjoy the hunt, its much more satisfying to know that you tracked down and got something thats not easy to get. is it me? i thought that was one of the major points to this all, maybe its just for those of of that like to mod.

i guess that most of the people on here arent actually "collectors", i view this the same as collecting gens, but even more exciting because of the difficultly in achieving a rep thats near perfect.

some cats are just impatient, and those are the guys who ask "who has the best sub"

i love sitting at home modding my watches. drilling the cases, filing the cg's, polishing em, taking them apart, putting them back together, the whole thing is a thrill.

if people dont want to do the legwork, well, they're not gonna get what they're looking for, cause a rep is a rep is a rep, and unless you modify it with gen parts and with patience and love, well then, its just a factory rep."

Again, this is not meant to offend or [censored] anyone off, and i really dont think it should. this is a passion for alot of us, and speaking from experience, the first few months was not easy to gain the knowledge i was looking for. I just wanted a great sub, lol.

enjoy, take it for what it is.......this is alot of fun, and always should be

the only suggestion i have is to wait for it to arrive. I didnt hear from him after i sent the money as well, but to be honest, i didnt really think twice about it.

i have no doubt that we will both recieve our watches shortly. could be next week, could be in 3, but i think they'll come, ttk's is a very well known and trusted dealer, so just put your feet up and enjoy the anxiety that comes with waiting for your new baby to arrive

if you follow ttks instructions exactly, he will respond fast. i ordered a noobmariner the other day, and i followed his directions, and he got back to me about an hour after i messaged him. very smooth, very helpful and very nice.

i think alot of people dont follow his request to his ordering process, cause he seemed pretty grateful that i did.

hahaha, i'm tellin ya, i keep all of my timepieces far away...........

hahahahahahaha, uggghhh, just got the runs looking at that!!!

next test nanuq: how it holds up on a womans wrist when she's having pms!!!! would disintegrate in no time

turned out better then i thought....whaddya guys think?

you got that right, i cant even click through without stopping

it was a joke about a submarine i saw on the discovery channel :)

ok, i stand corrected, ubi has the best sub!!!!!!! but not for long............. that list sure looks a hell of alot like my current items on order my friend, showdown!!!!

ok ok, i'll bite. yes, el's sub is impressive. rehaut is a little shallow, but its a damn fine rep, i have one.

also, like said before, ttks sub is, from what i have read, the best sub for the money. josh, andrew, and the likes all have great subs that vary a little, but all very nice.

sorry to pull your leg so much, it was a loaded question

i told you guys the germans have the best sub, see my post best sub

jeeeesh

i agree with ttk, last time i had a gen rolex, it took rolex nyc 3 months to service it, and it was like $600 if i recall correct, and, they're not the nicest people either.

utter robbery

ahahahahahahahahahaha

welcome WatchDude!!!!

josh was definatly a good way to go, great dealer.

and yes, it's a sickness, so hang onto your wallet. better yet, just hand it over to your wife!!!!

purchased a noobmariner from ttk cause of by-tors review, lucky for me, thats not the only new little treat i got.......... :)

pics coming soon

i saw one, but it was pretty off. the missle cylos were the wrong radius, the periscope only magnified the image 999 times instead of the proper 1000, asian battery powered engine instead of hydrogen fuelcells, only dived at a depth of 5000 meters, pfffffffff

just couldnt live with such imperfections

I was watching future weapons on discovery the other night, and the Germans have the quietest, fastest, strongest, most powerful, stealth sub there is. its by FAR superior to and gen rolex or rep oout there, it can launch nuclear missles for christ sake!!!

sorry, couldnt avoid it....

there are el primero mbw daytona kits available now, i know that for a fact. you do need to supply the movement for it does not come with one, but everything else is there.

they are being supplied by the same person that supplies the vintage mbw's, now you just gotta track him/her down

aint gonna be easy, i'll keep my eyes open for ya though

just in case anyone is looking for a gen sub insert for a tt or gold sub. he says its for older models, but its a modern pearl, so he might just be a moron
