Yes, I did read the post. Here it is for others that want to read it too - http://www.rwg.cc/topic/139189-updated-king-power-diver-4000m-48mm-a-big-disappointment/ If I purchase a watch with a claim that it is waterproof I wouldn't expect to have to check whether a gasket is missing. And in all honesty I don't even know where or what the gasket is. What I'm going to do with my watch is to have it pressure tested before using it in the water.

First of all I would like to say thank you to all of you that contribute to this community and make it so great. At first I was overwhelmed with the amount of information. But after spending almost 2 full days reading a gazilion posts, I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. I just placed an order for the Cartier Santos 100 with stainless steel bracelets. I'm just not very confident that I chose wisely. I wanted to run this by you guys since I still have time to modify the order if I need to. From the reviews that I have read the best Cartier Santos that is out there is the ultimate, which does not come with stainless steel bracelets. And the leather bracelets that do come with it are not of great quality. Redwatch, who wrote an excellent review of the Santos Ultimate w/ leather strap, mentioned on another review that the reason he doesn't wear his Santos ultimate that much is because of the leather strap. Quote Source: http://www.rwg.cc/topic/138826-ultimate-cartier-santos-100-with-steel-bracelet/ I compared the pictures on Andrew's website of the Ultimate with leather strap and the stainless steel versions. For the life of me I couldn't notice any difference. Maybe I need new glasses. Can you guys point out the differences, other than the strap, between these two versions? I even looked specifically at the cabochon crown ruby detail and couldn't notice any difference (other than the color, which I thought was the lighting). If there are many differences I'll change my order to get the ultimate with leather strap and look for an OEM strap. Below are the links to the Santos I'm comparing. I'm not endorsing Andrew since this is my very first order with him. Although I can say that he has been providing amazing service so far; and promptly answering all my e-mails.

I'm in for one of the new version. I tried to talk myself into being patient and waiting for other members to review but just couldn't do it I'll keep my fingers crossed that the factories got it right this time. And waterproof until 100m? I'll be all set for summer Thanks Vandal for pointing this watch out to me.

Has anyone received the latest version of the Hublot Diver and can confirm whether it really is waterproof? The previous version was supposed to be waterproof up to 30m but there is a thread stating otherwise - http://www.rwg.cc/topic/139189-updated-king-power-diver-4000m-48mm-a-big-disappointment/ Thanks in advance.

Thanks Mike!

Gran - your Chopards look amazing! are these the same? It was hard for me to tell since the quality of your pictures are so much better http://www.yourtrustytime.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=261_371&products_id=1969 http://www.yourtrustytime.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=261_371&products_id=1162 Also, am I breaking any forum rules by posting URLs to specific dealer pages? I just want to make sure I order the correct version since there are so many out there and I'm as new to this as you can get

Thanks for the input guys!

Does anyone know if The Zigmeister is taking on new work?

Where can I find a decent replica for any of the watches on this thread? I've been looking at several sites from trusted dealers but I'm finding it hard to tell by the pictures how good the quality of the replicas really are.
