Dizzy

ok well now my daytona with sec @6 is toast. it keeps stopping and you have a tap the case to get it going again (even after winding manually) and when it does work, it loses about 15 min per hour. i have had this watch a week or so and worn it 3 or 4 times and its done. im not impressed

haha yeah i saw that sea dweller on a site we prob all know about. i emailed them a few months ago asking about it and they told me the "100" is supposed to be there becasue its on the real rolex. uhmm? haha ok then. needless to say i didnt want to order any other watches from them after hearing that.

i guess i didnt really mean "beaten" badly but i like them to look as thoough they've been used daily. i agree it prob suits a sport watch better than a patek or something.. but there is nothing like an old sub or navitimer that looks like its had 20 or 30 years of service I guess i should have posted this in a diff area and not the rolex section. oh well im a rolex kind of guy anyways so its sorta the right area I love when you guys build the old daytonas and sub/seadwellers and make them look vintage and worn. I cant wait to build my own!!

One thing i dont like is a brand new out of the box unmarked shiny watch.. to me especially in the rep world it just SCREAMS fake. My ETA sub i wear daily is just beaten and dinged up and i LOVE it. My new Daytona i got is so clean and shiny i think that when i get home from work tonight i am gunna take a scuffy pad and a file to it What do you guys prefer? New and shiny? or Old and beaten? And then you weather your watch cases and bands, what methods do you prefer? I just use an sos pad and smack the case against the ground (concrete) or metal railings LOL... easy (take the movement out first though) hahaha I love nothing more than a worn vintage watch because it has so much character and so many stories to tell. If anyone has any pics of "damage" post them here!! I'll try to take some pics tonight and see how they turn out, but i warn you now.. i am a super noob when it comes to photographing watches

well i have now noticed that my daytona occasionaly runs slow.. lost 10min over a course of about 6 hours yesterday.. now it seems to be fine.. also the power reserve is about 1/4 that of my ETA submariners. if i take it off at night.. it will stop by the next afternoon. prob because of the extra gears in the sec@6 setup...

lol dont get me wrong.. i love a watch covered in diamonds.. i just dont like the way rolex does it

Very nice!! my favorite! i love the drilled lug holes much better than new models. Is that a gen crown? PM me when you wanna sell it

I cant wait for a high quality version of the Flying B. I want all stainless steel white dial. I love the jump hour!!

mines going on a week old and keeps excellent time. Very happy with it

got my sec at 6 a few days ago and it seems to be keeping good time.. played with the chronos a few times.. build quality is excellent.. we shall see how she lasts

i ordered the same one yesterday.. black dial.. cant wait!! most of them seem to have the wrong bezel but this one pictured in this post looks pretty good.

i just ordered a black ss sec @ 6 from wo-mart so we shall see... haha

wear the watch a little loose.. not so loose that it spins around your wrist though.. that will help too

i also get metal alergies. i agree to clean it really well..sometimes when my gen sub gets dirty from sweat and what not on hot days i get the rash.. cleaning the watch well always helps. I clean my jewellery in Mr.Clean and rubbing alcohol. im really sensative to metals but new quality reps dont bother me. I remember about 10 yrs ago having a day date gold replica and wow it just killed my wrist and i would get the worst rash but i wore it anyways!! haha.. nail polish was a good short term fix but wore off after a day or so and just left a nasty mess after a few applications...

i also would love to read a full review. i want to get a daytona but you guys have me all scared of the seconds at 6 asian movements LOL. i would rather get an older style rep with sec at 9 and have better reliability but most of them have that goofy subdial spacing. i cant afford a swiss 7750 daytona so not sure what to do...

I love the Navtimers. Its one of the best looking watches ever made i think.

not sure if i like this model... to me it looks funny with the red on the dial there.. i dunno i kinda like the current model better, although its not avail in ss. I'd rather buy a super avenger.. after all what another 4mm when your already at 44mm. ha ha Anyone have any pics of the caseback or bracelet/clasp on this new version?

Now maybe i am blind but i CANNOT find a link to the website for these 1:1 MBW or WM rolexes. Can someone PM me with the website?
