wilson10164 Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hello People of RWG! Became a member just under a month ago and have been lurking, reading and learning a whole bunch of stuff and of course staring at a lot of pretty watches. After perusing the forums and the trusted dealers websites i decided on the Yellow faced Seawolf and a Black faced Transocean. Purchased these watches from Perfect Clones and I am very super duper happy! Ordered them on Thursday 28th of Feb and they arrived yesterday 8th of March! here are the links to the watches. http://www.1-pc8838.com/blsw00008s-seawolf-ssss-p-12529.html http://www.1-pc8838.com/blt10007m-transocean-chrono-ssss-black-os20-p-12130.html Anyway... thought I should share some photos with you guys.

wilson10164 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I absolutely love it ! so glad I picked it over a more standard colour version (black or grey) also on another note they claim it to be waterproof to 30m on the website am i safe to take the seawolf in the water or should i just not risk it?

derik429 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 I recently picked up the Superocean 44 and I decided to test it in water (took some balls) I filled up my sink and placed it at the bottom and it still worked! But, to be honest, I wont be trying that again lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derik429 Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 No not safe, sink is one thing start moving around in water............................... I had moved it around in the sink and it was fine, but like I said, its not something I'm willing to keep trying.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson10164 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Well I had to have 2 of the links taken out and then the band is also attached to the shortest pin hole on the clasp. my wrists are i want to say 6 and half inches something like that? maybe a tad more, and each link is a bit over half and inch so including the pin part probably can go up to 8.5 inches? does that help? probably not ok, wont be risking it with the water thanks guys Edited March 10, 2013 by wilson10164 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted March 10, 2013 Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Yes thank you, 8.25 so I will need it all. if I get caught may bother you for a link! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilson10164 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 you have mighty wrists! haha. I think martijnp has a transocean as well? so perhaps he can chime in on the length of the band I don't want you purchase it and then have it not fit on my information.

indywatchguy Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 Derek the Seawolf will be fine in water just make sure the case back and crown are tight. I also have one and its water tight from the factory. Guys tend to be paranoid about the whole water resistance of reps. Every rep I've bought has been water tight right out the box minus tightening down the case back. I buy all my reps from Andrew at trusty time and if it says pressure tested it is. If its not Andrew will cover it but only if its a seal failure not user error ie open crown or loose case back. I know many members would disagree with me but you cant argue with results. i take all my reps snorkeling and diving to 25ft with zero issues. Enjoy to the max my friend and come on in the waters fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamcky2k Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 i had my rep seawolf pressure tested locally last year, passed the max the little machine could go to which was 100m (10atm), so no probs there...it was a great watch and i kinda regret selling it...
