marrickvilleboy Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Hey guys any views on this release? http://www.ttw888.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_7&products_id=10895 Obviously TC is the way to go with subs but wanted to see how far off this one is compared? thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Would definitely be interesting to see a detailed review. I guess it's a fairly accurate 16610 but nevertheless, I don't like the rehaut engraving and the pearl is definitely out of reach of the new caddell vintage insert.

deokhoon jun Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 Look, it doesnt have a gen construction. Dont put any value on it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marrickvilleboy Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Has anyone bought this version and confirm its not gen-like bezel construction? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Nitpicking apart. If You just want to use it without changing all the parts or getting the TC plus insert for nearly 700, I think it´s a fine rep to get for the price. Check the inner rehault engravings are centered at 12. Indeed that´s the 16610 I would buy from Trusty no damage done for the price. I am very happy with the TC - it´s the superior watch in every detail with a thinner caseset, no engravings - but still use the others about the same time so all of them stay new. Just get it, good choice. Comparison pic from Trustis Seadweller and TC to get an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 We've looked at this watch or others similar to it recently and it's NOT GEN LIKE CONSTRUCTION. But as Nightwatch says, for the price, it's a good inexpensive rep and you can't go wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 What happened M-boy? Last week you were looking for a gen and now you're browsing this kind of cheap shit? Did you get a reality check when you took a look inside your wallet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrickvilleboy Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 haha no i ended up buying the genuine piece! Haven't had a chance to do a review of it yet but see here for quick and dirty http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/166957-comparison-genuine-rolex-submariner-16610-vs-wm9bk-submariner-16610/#entry1307235 I'm about to sell the wm9/BK version and replace it with something cheaper! What happened M-boy? Last week you were looking for a gen and now you're browsing this kind of cheap [censored]? Did you get a reality check when you took a look inside your wallet? Seriously... stay away from junk like this. It is wrong in so many ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Wow... nice. Congrats for acquiring the Legend. I'd also buy one but I'm pretty happy with my franken WM9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrickvilleboy Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 thanks, By-tor! Your wm9 is very nice and is just like mine (mine has genuine crystal and crown). I just didnt see the need to have a genuine one and a wm9/BK so going to sell it shortly. Anyway, I ended up buying Trusty's 16610 so will do a review of it after!

watchwatch Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I just ordered the ceramic 116610 version of this watch. My only complaint is the "OYSTER PERPETUAL DATE" is too spaced apart and the clasp is significantly off. I can't wait to receive the watch though. I don't know if the 16610 has the same problems.

Hi and welcome, once you get used to it´s looks it´s a comfortable watch to wear with adjustable clasp which is very nice. Pearl is the only thing that sometimes bothers a bit but it doesn´t matter if You´re not sitting next to the guy with the gen in the train/plane.

juicemouse Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 My only advice is DON'T get it wet. My buddy and I worked for 5 hrs last night after his had a quick brush with the faucet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
