japanic Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 New offering on Yuki's site. Nice rehaut, small hour indices, SEL fit looks very good. CGs need some work. I think the dial is nicer for the same price as the ETA noobmariner. The only possible dealbreaker is payment by Western Union only. What are your thoughts? http://www.yukiwatch.com/catalog/item/7617720/9063669.htm
highoeyazmuhudee Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 nah save the money for a TW. the fact that the inside engraving of the caseback says 18k 750 you know its a street quality rep. the caseback gasket is also thinner than the standard gen size. for $300 having no gen parts fit is a waste of money.
giobo Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) This is probably the MBW sub... I am pretty sure for it..Only the wokky rehaut is the major issue..The others can be made , at least to some point.. Edited November 13, 2011 by giobo
chefcook Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 MBW would come with the "MONARCH POLFY" case back...
slickdick Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 No MBW by far...Its standard CN version. Date window 4:3 instead of 16:9, also positioned too far to the right. 300 is too much.
giobo Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Just received an email from yuki..It is an MBW... The editions differ between these MBW's..The older may had different case..But since yuki said and i have think it was i will agree with him.. 290$$ for an MBW hhhmmm??

preacher62 Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 I don't know...I've got two MBWs, a 16610 and 16613 and this doesn't look right. They have never put Montres Rolex in the case back.
praetor Posted November 13, 2011 Report Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) maybe just an updated version of MBW, the thin case makes the crown position look terribly low. wokkiness shouldn't really be an issue since some genuine 16610s are wokky, what matters is rehaut height and crystal construction, which doesn't look that bad in this example.

highoeyazmuhudee Posted November 14, 2011 Report Posted November 14, 2011 tis no MBW, the updated mbw is actually what we call the TW sub. buy it and you will not find a gen like construction retaining ring.
Dizzy Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 I have an MBW16610 and the watch on Yuki's site is NOT an MBW, not even close. highoeyazmuhudee is right. He's the MBW master around here.
praetor Posted November 17, 2011 Report Posted November 17, 2011 he's highly likely to be right, I've never seen an MBW before. Off topic (to Highoyeazmuhudee): I'm just happy to read on the metro newspaper today " evict Rob Ford protest this saturday" ahahahahah.
