Jacko86 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Hi, I just got my first rep, rolex submariner. Was actually disappointed bc the glide lock doesn't lock. It just keeps gliding. So should I return the watch? I waited 2 weeks for it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Vintage is more my thing, but if you are sure something is not working the way it is supposed to (& it is not pilot error), you should begin by asking the seller what you should do.

PATerai Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 What version is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted November 4, 2013 Report Share Posted November 4, 2013 Sounds like the bp version of the ceramic 116610, right? Just get noob bracelet of a dealer, glue it tight or live with it like most of the bp owners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derik429 Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 I used plyers and a t shirt over the clasp to tighten it up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitmic Posted November 5, 2013 Report Share Posted November 5, 2013 Sorry to ask but since I'm quite new you'll have to explain. What's a noob bracelet Were can I find this? Noob is a term for the factory which once made the famous noobmariner. I think all dealers can source the noob version. I know for sure that Angus over at Puretime has it. www.pureti.me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
