  1. I'm wanting to pick up a GMT Master II (non-ceramic) with coke or pepsi bezel. The newest models from the TD's finally have superlume which is what I've been waiting for. But my question is.....How are they?

     

    I would love to see some real world owner pics of one of the new sapphire crystal models. Or any of the Rolex masters who have looked at the pics of the newest superlumed offerings to tell me what flaws they see.

     

    Thanks for help in advance,

  2. It's only gonna get worse fellas..... I just retired (I say that because I went back to my old profession before the crap hit the fan) from the USPS after almost 8 years of working as a city carrier, sorting and distribution manager, and maintenance. The hatchet is gonna fall really soon and the good ole USPS ain't going to worth a $hit I'm afriad. The politicians are running the post office and they want to privitize it like UPS/Fed Ex so they can make loads of money.

    It used to be customers came first and nothing was more important than getting all the mail delivered as quick as possible. Now it's all about part time workers, no guaranteed hours, usually working 16 to 25 hrs a week. They wonder why they can't keep employees?? The average length of employment for the USPS new hires is less than year right now when it used to be employees stayed on till they retired. They are in the process of pulling employees out of the federal retirement system, the federal thrift savings plan, dropping federal healthcare for a new postal health insurance plan. Adding a crappy 401k retirement plan and no new employee will ever be guaranteed 40 hrs a week.

  3. It's a pretty decent watch, go ahead and get it. The rehaut is fine, the pearl needs swapped out with an aftermarket and the crown guards need trimmed. If you want to add a gen crown and clarks tube that will really make it. The bracelet is actually a submariner bracelet with the half link at the clasp that the Sea Dweller doesn't have and it's kinda crappy. You can get a "TC Sea Dweller bracelet" to complete the package.

    I have 2 of these SD's with the above mentioned mods done and IMO thay look pretty dang good!
