Best Out of the Box Submariner for $200

[lancerplayer]

Noob here so go easy on me, please.

Currently, what is the best out of the box Rolex Submariner replica for $200 and under? What offers the best genuine physical appearance as well as a reliable and functionable movement?

I have been advised that Timeshops offers a solid out of the box Submariner for a good price. The watch can be found here - http://www.timeshops.net/6416-rwi-promotionro6524-rolex-submariner-black-ss-noobfactory-asian-copy-2836-.html

I look forward to all the responses! Thanks for your time.

+1 for the asian 2836 from timesshop. Good sub at bargain price. sand the rehaut, slightly shave the crownguards and do epoxy mod to the pearl. off you go, near perfect

Sand the Rehaut?

Is that one really Swiss ETA as it claims?

yes, sand it off. the rehaut is immediate tell on a noob. looks so much better without it. use search for noobmariner mods. there is a pictorial somewhere on the forum :-)

I purchased the noob 16610 eta from timeshop. It is a real ETA. I had it verified. There is a bezel that you can purchse on ebay from luxary88 is really excellent. When you sand the rehaut and change the bexel for $10 its incredible looking.
