wiseguy1481 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Hey guy, I keep seeing people post up comments such as; "who has the best sub" and "this is a candidate for the best sub award".... I think its time we pull them out and show them off and see who REALLY has the best sub. Ill go first: TC Sub LV - Gen Insert - Gen Crystal (non AR'd) - Gen Crown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vibramute64 Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Compared to some of the super reps that pop up on this thread, my two aren't even contenders, but I love my Tudor subs anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docthor Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Well...it depends on the way one is looking at it...he probably spent more on this uberfranken then he would have to spent on a total genuine but still has a watch that, according to his pics (SEL fitment, CG trim), screams "rep"...from my/this point of view I cannot agree that dan_189 is a/the winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gngn Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 I love the strap. Where did you get it and what clasp do you use? I've got the same watch but don't wear it that often as I don't like the bracelet. [/offtopic on] Thanks a lot! That crocodile strap was a highly debated item in the German forum, actually - most people didn't like it (except for my wife, me, and a couple of other weird guys). Typical statement was "too polished" or "too much bling bling" but it works pretty well when you see it live and in dress watch style. It's a "RIOS Windsor 20mm" aftermarket croc strap like shown here: http://www.uhrenarmband-versand.de/Uhrenbandversand-p9760h143s145-Uhrenarmband-Windsor.html The buckle is a silver rep part I found on eBay. The UK seller got busted shortly afterwards. I was lucky. Thes buckles come up here & there from time to time. Couple of additional pics (on a wm9 v2 Franken Sub... nevermind) : [/offtopic off] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mills Posted May 17, 2013 Report Share Posted May 17, 2013 Thanks for the extra photos. I've been wondering what buckles people have been using on leather. Nice combo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavidoc Posted May 18, 2013 Report Share Posted May 18, 2013 I don't own these anymore and ended up parting them out but they were a lot of fun to build. First is a 9411 blue I did. Used an MBW case but everything else was gen including the movement. MBW case Gen Bezel Gen insert Gen retaining ring Gen crystal Gen dial Gen hands Gen movement Gen bracelet Gen endlinks Gen crown Gen tube The 2nd was also using an MBW case. The movement was a 2783 instead of a Tudor 2776. IT is the one on the left with the 79090 (which was gen). I eventually replaced the crappy rep bracelet with a real one. MBW case ETA 2783 movement Gen bezel Gen insert Gen retaining ring Gen crystal Gen dial Gen hands Gen crown Gen tube Gen bracelet Gen endlinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_189 Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Well...it depends on the way one is looking at it...he probably spent more on this uberfranken then he would have to spent on a total genuine but still has a watch that, according to his pics (SEL fitment, CG trim), screams "rep"...from my/this point of view I cannot agree that dan_189 is a/the winner The total cost was under the cost of a genuine, I didnt trim the CG and the SEL fitment is actually quite good. Cant get much better seeming the case is a Sean but the bracelet is genuine. The only alternative for a genuine parts build is a TC case which wont fit a genuine bracelet. Ive actually been in Rolex with it and they have looked at it and commented on what good condition its in, that to me is enough to be very satisfied.

docthor Posted May 19, 2013 Report Share Posted May 19, 2013 Well...as I wrote...according to that one and only pic of yours it looks like the lower CG has a weired rounded inner shape and that's there a pretty visual gap between the SEL and the horns.Lucky you if it's only the pic or my eyes...don't wanna offend you Sent from my wooden drums using Tupperware.

Lucky you if it's only the pic or my eyes...don't wanna offend you Sent from my wooden drums using Tupperware. All good Im not sure there might be or it might be the pic. As for the gap is that horizontal (between the lugs) or vertical?
