Just ordered the TW sub, wooo

I know Trevor sells them for $27.

A ceramic bezel insert? That's a pretty good price. They are about £65 ($105) on ebay

and let me add ... I accidentally dissolved the glue in my DSSD insert with the chemical in Cape Cod cloth, and it fell out onto the cement floor of my garage. It hit upright on it's edge and rang like a silver bell TIIIING TING TING as it bounced across the concrete.

No breakage. Picked it up and glued it back in.

I had a ceramic sub at one point, I think it came from pure time. And the same thing happened, the bezel insert fell out, and I lost it. They are expensive to replace, at least the aluminum ones are cheap. So another reason I think I will go for the classic 16610 sub.

Thanks guy, I suppose the ceramic is better material to protect from scratches as its so hard, but then that does add a negative of a possible breakage. I think I will be going for the TW 16610.

BK TW... I don't like the ceramic subs, they're too 'fussy' and blingy with the rehaut engravings, and the cerachrome insert is much less durable than the 16610's insert

If I didn't already own a classic sea dweller 16600 I would be getting the TW, but as it is quite similar to that I am stuck between if I should order the ceramic or TW. And you say that the ceramic bezel insert isn't as durable? I am always knocking my watch on things, is the ceramic likely to crack easily in your opinion?

Use them, enjoy them, keep them maintained.

Owch

BK's TW 16610 sub or Ceramic Sub, which one would you go for?

I decided to get a blue bezel in the end. I know it won't be an accurate rep, but I think it will look very nice, will upload a pic soon.

How about the new Datejust II with smooth bezel?

Yea the new datejust 2 looks very nice, but I have a feeling that if a rep of this is made it wont be as good as the rep of the new sub

Anyone know when a rep of the new 2012 Rolex submariner without the date is likely to come out? / if it will....

Thanks for the link

Hey guys,

I lost the ceramic bezel for my black submariner ages ago, and now I am thinking about thinking about fixing it so that I can use it again.

I was thinking about a green bezel? I know rolex did an anniversary edition of the submariner with a black face and green bezel. Did they ever release a model with a ceramic green bezel and black face? If so do you know where I can get a rep ceramic bezel from? If not I guess I will just try and hunt a black bezel down.

Thanks for your help
