Well, my 16600 is not as bad as the Yachtie from Blowers but look at this date. Too low and the 16570, too left

The WG surround of the hour markers look a little too tick too me though. But that could be the photo.

Exactly ! What else coul I say

The AR coating is incredible !

Wow.

So great to hear about the GTGs! Thanks for sharing, it looks like you had a nice time toghether. I would have love to see the waiters faces when the watches poped out

CJ, I have no idea why exactly you started this thread but the quote sums it all !!! It's a good idea you got anyway. To add to the quote, this place is not even making a penny at all, worse, not covering the expenses most of the time. So, yes, I don't see anything else to say but thanks to the owner and the team! Warm regards, Stephane

Well, you are more than welcome Why not have a break before you decide? A nice dinner with some champagne bubbles ...and tomorrow you might want a Sub Ooops, by the way, who's got the best sub Seriously, if there is a watch I would love to see on a woman wrist it is: a white Explorer II

Even an awfull watch would look good with your eye Capice !!!

I second that (Don't forget me Joe)

I will repeat that from North America to Europe I have no problems with a good old brown enveloppe sent by registered mail signed for receipt. It's not different from a letter and shouldn't have any declaration. A watch + strap is not big enough to attract suspicion unless it's packed in a huge light box with "watch parts" written on it. And of course, if a custom declaration is an obligation, then it should be declared as something that is of low value and not exiting for theives. The registered mail signed for receipt was very safe for me so far. As an example, I have a set of accessories, a box and a watch to send to the US. I will send the Box only separately just in case it attracts the postal service employees. The watch will be in a enveloppe. At the end of the day, a watch wrapped in bubbles and fitted in a bubbled enveloppe is very safe as long as the enveloppe is sealed with large tape, isn't it? Finaly, the responsability should be discussed prior to the sending...and why not in writting if it's between two members who does not know each other! Cheers Stephane

Forgot to mention this one while travelling

Indeed: SSD, Submariner, Explorer II, 1665, 1680 ....

Hey there !!! Congratulations for this very special day and thanks for sharing it with us. I hope Madame Cronsell will attend the next GTG All the best, Stephane

I think what you describe is correct

Thanks for the time BT. Great review indeed. I'm like Max: ugly watch, not for me but it's so nice to see the Noob Factory does better job on the watches now. I would like to say about Eurotimez (after doing some business with him) that he is definetly trustable. Cheers Stephane

Easter holiday for the kids, myself and some watches. A little trip to France

So, lots of different advices here. I want a new one too and save some money for it. I still wonder if a Canon 350D (a little cheaper) or a 400D is "a better choice" than a Nikon D40 (both are the same price). The choice between both brands is a matter of marketing I suppose... Any preferences?

Well, a thousand for a 99.9% is the expected price I would say. So, that is a project I would consider but not more than that for sure. Thanks Ros.

Wow, good luck! I've been after all of them almost and at the end of the day I prefer the SeaDweller now Go figure

Well, I didn't realise the cost either and if it is close to 2K then what's the point ?! Save a bit more and get a second hand gen with lugholes At this stage it would be cool to know how much this project costed ...

Tribal, ...don't push me too hard or I'll got for my 10th Sub

Hmmm, it's HIM not her In the collector section, but I'm not too sure if you have access to that section. Maybe you should become supporter to access it. In the meantime, here is what I wrote when I got mine from TTK (exact same one as Narika's one): Rolex Submariner 16610: The NoobMariner

Amazing how the reflex isn't yet the NoobMariner from TTK or Narika. Well TTK isn't here anymore Guys, come on, for 100$ you can get one of the best out the box sub available from Narika, THE NoobMariner. Just my 2 subs

So, it sounds that the best sub exist now Congrats on the project guys. Cheers Stephane
