are either of these still available w/ swiss eta? are they really water resistant to 1000m like Josh website claims?

There was a major earthquake in China killing a lot of people. I believe that some of the people that sell watches and participate in this group are from China. I want to extend my condolence to all the people of China and wish the best to those that participate in the forum and have been affected by this awful tragedy.

I have a rolex no-date sub that I got from Josh over a year ago. I've been using it pretty much every day. It is my beater watch. I use it for running, swimming and everything else. I swim something like 10,000 yards a week. It's been working great. It runs a tiny bit slow, but it heck, it is a mechanical watch. I must say that when I first got it, it had a couple of tiny specks of dust on the dial and the watchband fell off. I emailed Josh and he asked me to send it back. I did, and he sent it back perfectly clean and with a new watch band. I am not nice on watches. Yet, this watch keeps going great. The sapphire crystal is still perfect as it should. The bezel fell off once and I re-glued it. It hasn't fell off since, but it has a couple of scratches. Anyways, I just wanted to give everyone the thumbs up on my watch and to Josh. Andres

This morning I was telling my wife that I have been wearing my fake pretty much every day for the last two months for swimming every other day for an hour, running, bathing and everything else that I do. The watch works well and it doesn't have a scratch. She said to me with a smurk: "Well honey, its a rolex" Andres

Yeah, I had also put in for an IWC aquatimer a while back. Just a friendly reminder. Andres

Thx! So I gather that you apply a little silicone grease to each gasket? Do reps also have the three gaskets on the stem? Andres

Hi, I was looking at a post dating from December. In the pictures, you also remove the crown and stem. I wasn't sure why you did this. Can you explain? Thx, Andres

I actually try to swim three times a week before I go to work. It makes me feel I also like to Andres

I have been wearing a replica sub w/ no date for about 4 weeks now. I wear it pretty much every day and swim with it about 9,000-12,000 yards a week. Its holding up great. Andres

This is a picture of my expression upon seeeing the watch Andres

Thanks for all the replies. When I go to the rolex website and compare my watch with the one on the site, It is hard for me to see any differences. Once I start looking at my watch under a magnifying glass, or the enlarged photos, then I can see that the bezel groves are longer, the font is slightly different, etc. I have to make an effort though. With the naked eye, I can't see much difference. I must say that I am happy with my watch and I like it better than the classic sub, even if that one is a better replica. I hate the bubble over the date. One thing that I really dislike is the bracelet. It feels cheesy. I really like my invicta bracelet much better. I wish that replica rolex bracelets would feel a little more solid. Thanks again, Andres

the seller is a power seller with over 900 positive feedbacks from what appears to be legit buyers. I doubt that he is selling fakes. Andres

not sure. the rehault is as deep as in my invicta 8926. Andres

Here are some more pics. This is a no date sub that I got from Josh. Opinions, critizisms, etc. please. I know that the pictures suck.

lets see if I can do this

This is funny. I am expecting a package from EMS from china that Josh is sending. I put the tracking number in the USPS system and it is already tracking. It is not yet tracking in the EMS website. BTW, I am inserting an ad here. Josh is great. He is polite. He always responds to messages within 24 hours explaining what is the stuatus of a purchase, repair, or whatever else. This is not just when he is trying to make a sale. Andres

Hey, these are just like in the movie "They Live". Has anyone seen the movie? Andres

seiko with the 7s26 and 7s36 mecahnisms are the ultimate poor man's automatic watch. They'll last forever, they look and they come in tons of different designs for $35 to $100. For a complete selection check out: www.skywatches.com.sg

Yeah, I just saw their website, which of course doesn't even mention prices. www.geraldgenta.com Andres

Actually, I am talking about a rep. I would never wear $5000 on my wrist or anywhere else. I think that a sub replica with a cartoon character would be kinda ironic. Subs are suppossed to be the ultimate in macho and expesnive. I like the idea of saying: look, I pay $100 for the same watch that you are wearing and it looks the same as yours. Not only that, but mine has a cartoon character on the face and that's how I feel about your macho watch. I can also run, swim and dive faster and better than you with my $100 sub rep. I really like the sub. However, i never hide the fact that mine is a replica. In fact, I proudly announce it. Andres

Instead of the 007 planet oceans, I think that a mickey Mouse, Pluto, Batman, Joker or Cat woman planet ocean or sub would be really cool. Now, a mickey mouse sub would be soemthing that show originality. Could anyone here custom make a mickey mouse noob or planet ocean? I'll be willing to buy one of those. Andres

Some movements may do that. ETAs usually don't. Myotas and other asian movements do so. I don't know why. I have an invicta with a myota auto. Its been doing this for a while. Yet, it was regulated by invicta and it keeps perfect time. Andres

I like it except that I don't like the compas. I haven't figured out how the compas would work anyways. I have a seiko monster. Its one of my favorite watches. It gains about 20 seconds a day. I'll have it regulated one of this days. If you want to look at seiko watches, go to: skywatches.com.sg They sell cheap seiko autos for the asian and ebay market. You'll see seiko until you puke. They go for nothing. Ive gotten a couple. Andres

I just went to ebay. they still have a few. Andres

I really liked the xemex designs. They use to sell very inexpensively on ebay. After a while ebay stopped carrying them. Don't know why. I wish I had gotten one. Andres
