trademarque Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 (edited) hi guys, i bought this ralex sub from whatch-a-doin?. it was advertised for over a week for $100, and had already had the crown guard mod and a genuine insert fitted, and is ETA. my intention for this watch was to switch parts with my other TT blue sub, as the gold dial never appealed to me...but when i got it,, that all changed... its beautiful! the gold dial is not too loud,its almost the light gold colour of the bracelet, which is a lovely pale 18k. the crown guard mod was not the best i'd seen, so i opened them up a bit more. refinished the bracelet and lugs in lovely satin, then a quick slap with AutoGlym super resin polish!...the bracelet sides were polished on this one..so i satined them too.. all this for a measly $100 + 25 ship... this is one of the most beautiful rep subs i have seen...and i have had lots!! enjoy!! feedback welcome!!

Whatch-A-Doin? Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 It really looks great! Enjoy it. I wore it with pride before your mods so I can only imagine how you're feeling. I basically sold it to buy more guitar gear...I switched hobbies for a while... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin46 Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Great watch One point to make, the bracelet edges are supposed to be polished (the Genuine ones are). All two tone and gold rolex watches have mirror polished sides on the bracelet. Get polishing.

pro expert dan Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 Nice watch, enjoy it. I like it when the black text rubs off from the sticker, makes me wet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
