Hello All, Today I returned home to find the TC Submariner V6 Arrived. I am pretty noob here but I am diving pretty deep into the submariner, pun intended. You all can see some pictures attached below. I will be sure to post more picture if you want to see a certain aspect. Since I am so new, I will let you all be the judge. Please critic flaws you see. I took some pictures of the TC V6 next to my BP Ceramic Sub. My initial impressions are as follows: The watch is beautiful. I think I like the old Sub model much more than the bulkier ceramic model. I also prefer the smaller hour markers. Some worries are as follows: The bezel doesn't make the same loud clicking sound, although it does click, just a duller tone. Also, the watch feels pretty light..idk if this is because I am used to the ceramic model which is more bulky. Also, and probably my biggest concern, and I would be curious to know if this is just normal for the older sub models is this: The bracelet feels very light and the clasp feels a little cheap when comparing to the BP Ceramic version. All in all, beautiful watch and I have to say TC gave awesome customer service and he sent the watch in rapid time. More details to follow. Please let me know what you, the experts think...

Hey guys, I just bought myself my first replica, having a respectable collection of genuine Rolex & Breitling watches. More or less a try-out of the watch, trying to see if it's a design I'd like to live with, before spending €18,000 on one. I bought if from Trusty and it's his HBB 0239 watch, (Big Bang Rose Gold Ceramic Black A-7750). I believe it's the new v6 version, correct me if I'm wrong ( http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=279_280&products_id=9455 ). QR pics: http://imgur.com/a/erIzf . It's one of those "Made with genuine fully dissected - 1:1 replication" reps. I'm actually impressed with it, there are only very minor twirks that would make you understand it's a replica, and that, only in good light situations and probably only comparing it with the original. I have to state that the bezel does not have a blue tint, it's actually super clear. I assume they are now sourcing different crystals, so possibly ,every v6 made from now on will have such a good glass. I got a friend that has a Hublot Aero Bang, he did check out the watch from the back as well, and he didn't even ask if it's a rep. Although I have to say this was done in a night club with bad lighting and the guy was not wearing his Hublot at the time. This is such a good rep that makes the genuine watch price look silly, at least to people having no idea about quality watches. In case the following can be corrected or modded out, I guess this rep is a winner: 1) The top ("ceramic") part of the case has the side-teeth 'pattern' completely wrong. The V1 case has this pattern almost spot on. Does anyone know if this model's top part can be replaced with a V1 top case, provided that this can be sourced out? Has anyone done this? 2) The buttons and crown feel really cheap to fiddle with, at least compared to my other automatic watches. I have no experience on a real Hublot to compare though, so that might be OK. I guess the movement has to be replaced in order for that to change. 3) The movement looks quite convincing if you don't have a good memory and remember the exact dimensions and relative sizes of parts and gears. The 'HUBLOT GENEVE' writing on the winder is not engraved though. I think I've seen a HBB rep version where the winder's font was closer to the original and it was engraved, although it did need a bit of sanding down to really look the part. I can't find the thread right now though. 4) The strap will obviously be replaced, although I have no idea where to look into first. I would buy the original strap and locking mechanism in case they are worth it. 5) Is it me, or is the date window a tad off by almost half a mm? I guess this is the best that can be done on an asian 7750 Vaijoux though. In case someone has bought the new v6 from any trusted dealer and has experience with reps and mods, I guess his input in this thread would be greatly appreciated. Let's start making this version of v6 the new v1 P.S. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics, if anyone wants DSLR pics under good lighting of the watch it's really easy for me to do.

First off, thanks tony and thanks ALE!! (Asian7750 under the TD's at RWI) (ALE7575 from the official hublot Big Bang on RWI: http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/official-thread-hbb-82678.html)For the speedy and efficient delivery and replies @ tony and the great help and patience provided by ale who replied to all of my posts on the thread and many others too!! A review of my dealing with tony can be found here! (http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/hublot-big-bang-141911.html) I would recommend him to anyone and everyone since he has great prices and great service! This is my first 'review' and purchase so it'll be of a certain mediocre standard haha. My pictures are not the best but here goes! It looks gorgeous in my opinion. For those who said the bezel is not shiny, it SPARKLES! Just like the gen. And the stopwatch is perfect, played around with it a bit hahaha yes I know I shouldn't but I was excited. :hehehe: the dial looks scarily identical to the gen and all in all I'm very pleased with the v6!! It's an amazing watch and my marker at 6 is not off as a lot of people have claimed. Heck I told people who asked if it was fake, "yup" and they didn't even believe me! One of my friends is a watch enthusiast too haha, well my gain! The following photos were taken with my ipad and on my dining table/wrist so sorry if they aren't great! The couple of gripes that I have with respect to the watch is that firstly the red of the seconds hand on the chronograph is not as red as the gen! Secondly, the clasp is a but sharp which can hurt after long periods of wearing it or short periods if you wear it very tightly. Lastly, it's not a problem with the face, it's with the strap. As you can see, it sticks out in the photos and is quite ugly because of that. As such I'm purchasing an all black strap from Eric of hamiltonleathers who will make it for me in a week, I shall post photos when I receive them! That's all for now! :cheers: do ask me any questions!
