thank you kind sir!!

Can anyone tell me if the current model gen Sub still has hollow middle links in the bracelet? If not, does anyone know when Rolex switched to solid links? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!! Bob Christopher

Well, if anyone hears from Joe would you ask him to send back my tutone Sub and money for mods that he has had for exactly TWO YEARS now!! Numerous phone calls and emails so I finally quit trying. IMHO Joe is a nice well-meaning guy, but if you send your watch for mods you'd better cross your fingers. No animosity...just the truth. Bob Christopher

She tried on a Gen men's at Bailey Banks and Biddle and it was WAY too big. In fact the ladies Roadster is pretty big itself. Thanks, Bob

Long time member from RWG and RWG 2. I am looking for a ladies Cartier Roadster Stainless with a SILVER dial. Do any of our friends Josh or Andrew or Eddie or King have one? Appreciate any help and also very much appreciate the forum. Although I don't post a lot, I read the forum every day. Thanks to those who take their time to maintain the site. Cheers Bob Christopher robert7714@hotmail.com

You are right about the slight imperfections, but so far it is swim pruf. Good luck with yours. Bob

hmmm, I'll have to take another listen with my "good" ear. Thanks!!

I am deaf in my right ear with a 60% loss in my left ear, but I can't hear anything when the bezel is turned. I don't have a gen to compare it to, but it seems like I remember reading on the Rolex site that the yachty has a "smooth turning bi-directional bezel". If any members can verify or refute this please let me and ubiquitous know. Thanks!! And, a fabulous weekend to all!! Bob Christopher

Actually, the bezel doesn't click at all. It is smooth with no sound, fairly tight (definitely not "sloppy") and bi-directional as is the gen. I have never owned a gen yachty...does all this sound fairly close to the gen? For those asking for pics, I don't have a way right now to upload pics but it looks exactly like the one on Andrew's webpage. It may not be perfect, but I haven't found any major flaws and IT DOESN'T TAKE ON WATER!!!! I've been swimming 3 times now, several showers and nary a leak. Can't wait til next summer to take it on a SCUBA dive and see what happens. I had a Bergeron pressure tester, but it is on it's way to Puerto Rico as I have sold it to another RWG member. I sent it COD so I hope I get the money LOL! I have a local watch repair shop that, as a general rule won't work on reps, but there are a couple of guys there who would probably pressure test it for me as a favor. I'll let you all know what they say next week. All in all it's a good looking quality looking watch and the water resistant option was worth it to me. After all, if I see someone wearing a Rollie and they dive into the water like it's no problem then it's a 99.9% chance that it is a gen. So, just being able to party with my friends on the lake and not have to worry about taking the yachty off is worth it to me. Cheers to all!! Bob

Well, mine looks real and definitely doesn't take on water (at least down to 25 feet or so). I am very happy with this watch. Out of 30+ reps I have bought, this is the best ever. Bob Christopher

I got mine in about 10 days and it is dead-on perfect. It has the extra O-ring on the stem like my gen sub. I took the watch straight to the lake and went wave-running and swimming all day. Absolutely no problems. I have bought about 30 reps from Paul and Eddie and King etc., but I believe this is the best Rep I have ever seen. Bob Christopher

I have a Bergeron just like the one in the photo. I don't have the box, but it is brand new and never used. I would sell it for $300. Bob Christopher robert7714@hotmail.com

Joe - I have been trying to contact you and my email comes back undeliverable. Since it has been over a year now, can you just send back my tutone black dial sub and my money? I know you have been sick, but I have some medical bills of my own that I need to pay. Please let me know. My regular email is robert7714@hotmail.com Thanks and no hard feelings, Bob

Joe - I tried to email you and it came back "undelivered". Since it has been over a year now with my black dial tutone Sub, can you just return the watch and my money? I know you have been ill and other things but I have some medical bills that I need to pay. Please let me know. Send it to Joe, Bob....................ken Thanks!!!!

I have purchased 2 watches from "Paul" in the past month. Both were very nice and shipment was really quick. Western Union is a bit of a hassle, but everything went smoothly for me.
