duke1973 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Well this one arrived today, just some Q&D's for you guys. The rehaut is wokky but it looks like the crystal makes a lot worse than it it. When looked at from dead on the rehaut doesn't appear to be so wokky. the farther I hold the watch away from my eyes the worse it gets? So that's why I think the crystal distortion is making look much worse than it is. The crown guards need to be shaved but are not stubby like we thought. The lugs at 2 and 7 o'clock are not finished properly, looks like they forgot to brush them? I don't think the bracelet is alll that bad, it's really close to my SSD bracelet. the end links look decent to me. The superlume is good but not great like C3 superluminova, it will last all night though. Gotta go to work so I'll let you experts take over from here.....

cib0rgman Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I feel sorry for you buddy, but that watch is not going to cut it. the rehaut is woooky and the wall is not wide enough, the factories may think thaty we are stupid and desperrate. seriously return it and get something else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsiadeCuba Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 yea the wokkyness is more than enough for our rolex freaks to not get this. such a simple thing to do but the factories cant seem to get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deokhoon jun Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Look, I popped the crystal out from the case. There is no space between insert and rehault and also rehaut is wokkey. First I thought like you the problem is the crystal. After seeing the real side of rehaut, I throwed it away in trade zone. Compare with SSD case.

Rolexman Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Thanks for sharing mate! The SSD is still the best Seadweller to this date. With some small mods it's almost dead-on. If you compare that to this POS it's like night and day...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thogaa Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Is this one of those that were shipped out before it was pulled from cartel sites? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paneraibob Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Is this one of those that were shipped out before it was pulled from cartel sites? I was thinking and hoping the same but still if it was shipped before we still would have the minimi CG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Geezus! I don't realize it would be so bad. Duke, this weekend I'll be done. I say take a look a the movement and dial and see how the rest of it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thogaa Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Still in doubt about the CG's. Aren't they ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke1973 Posted January 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 E, That's what I'm thinking. I'll swap this dial and hands into the SSD I have now. The lume is awesome on this one! The dial is the same diameter as the SSD so it should fit. It appears the caseback is the same size also. So my intial plans for this one look to be good to go! (initial plans were to use the caseback, dial, hands for the SSD cases we bought as "parts"....for those who are wondering?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 Good pointers I see. Case back. Looks good. Hopefully it seals well. Crystal looks good. Bezel looks good. Not sure about the insert. Maybe the case can be saved for a Project X SSD E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cib0rgman Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I guess some parts can be use, bit none of us should buy this watch, dealers need to realize that we are not new in this game, and bring good products here. all i can say is that they were lazy and they cal Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board ExpressThis is no 1:1 at all Sent from my SGH-i917 using Board Express Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its_urabus Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I agree, no one here should buy this pos, unfortunately they will sell them elsewhere. At least we will let them know our position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thogaa Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 This thread seems to be about the first version that was pulled. What about the updated version witth better rehaut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosnik Posted January 26, 2012 Report Share Posted January 26, 2012 I suggest one stop buy, one SSD stroke! This till they get one nice 1:1 case of 16600 ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke1973 Posted January 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2012 This thread seems to be about the first version that was pulled. What about the updated version witth better rehaut? I supposedly have one of the "newer" ones coming also.....It was ordered from Trusty time the same day they posted the updated pics. It will be here today according to the tracking. I'll update the thread with new pictures of it if it's different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke1973 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 The SAME EXACT watch........I said on another forum that I thought it was strange that the were able to totally rework the rehaut in such a short time. I mentioned I thought they might have used old pictures or photoshopped the old ones... The elder members over on the other forum totally defended Andrew and said he has never been un trustyworthy. Well IMO, THIS is misleading and ttoally unacceptable [censored]! It's going back........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke1973 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 The more I think about this the madder I get.....This is total CRAP! I'm going to email Trusty and ask Josh/Andrew what the deal with this "improved" SD rehaut is? If they say it's fixed I'm calling bull s--t!! I'll send them pics of what I received and show them it's NOT fixed, it's the same watch from the old QC pics... I'll let all of you know what they say, although it may be a couple of weeks before I get a response..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
