Stephane Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Dear All, I start this topic because I am very surprised that I do like the Rolex Deep Sea. A while ago, when the first reps of that model were released I bought one. It lasted a week and then I sold it because it felt to big. Lately, one of these was up for sale and, as it was a “NoobFactory” one, I thought I should give it a second try. It’s been two weeks now that I am wearing it every day! Maybe it is because I’m missing my Subs/SeaDweller that are currently out for mods or at my nephew, and that I have been wearing all my other watches for month, but this time, the Rolex Deep Sea I really love it. What is your opinion on this model. Do you like it, own one, which version… Cheers Stephane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I have small wrists so the largest Rolex I would wear is my sub. I also owned a gen ceramic sub and felt that was to bulky. Nothing sits more comfortable on my wrist then my 16610 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 I fully agree! My (gen) 16610 is my fav one. But again, as I lend it to my nephew since months now, I really enjoy the bid Deep Sea. I think it's very much like all these guys showing off with their pams ;-) but with a cool brand (Rolex). Jocking.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irolexu Posted December 6, 2012 Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 You let your nephew borrow your gen while you wear a rep? Hmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 You let your nephew borrow your gen while you wear a rep? Hmmmm Well, you know Rep/Gen...it's only about what do you like to wear? I have owned quite a lot of 16610 (Rep, modded, franken...) and it make sense to end up with a gen as it is my most desirable watch. So, my nephew likes it very much and the only one left is a gen ! It's a 2000 one, with Swiss dial, so pretty cool as it is a bit different. But in the end, the model is what we like isn't it? A gen is a gen, but it is not that different from a well build rep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 Oh, and about various 16610, here is a link to the one I got before I could afford my gen http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/57836-my-collection-of-past-present-watches/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
