sputim Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 A friend of mine who previously owned a gen 16613 really likes my tc sub v6 but he has not the money to pay 550usd and he's not that aware of flaws as we are on the boards So my question is where I can find the best 16610 from our TD's. Trusty has one which looks fairly nice but as much as I am aware this is not the noobmariner right? Is the noobmariner 16610 still the beste (except TC sub) we can get from our dealers? Moreover I have a spare caddell vintage insert lying around at home and want to know whether this would fit or not? Thanks for any inputs, Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
live1 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 sean,tcv6,wm9 v2,noob,bp,this is the order of best to worse imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 sean,tcv6,wm9 v2,noob,bp,this is the order of best to worse imo. Thanks live, but it must be a 16610 so I think v2 and bp are out of the game. wm9 and tc v6 is not what I am searching about since it's too expensive. I heard about the Sean and it must have a great case. But do I still get them from our td's for a decent price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
live1 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 bp ,and noob 16610 is cheap.but i guess a noob 16610 will be only found used.andrew trusty sells the bp.but imo noob and bp don't really look gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Ok, yeah I saw the one from trusty but the rehaut looks awfull. So there is only noob and bp (cheapies) and otherwise I need to look for a used one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
live1 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 all the subs ive listed are 16610s ,bp is andrew and noob you will need to get a used as its old .they look bad.if i wanted a 16610 i would go sean ,then tc, but its very expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
live1 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 when i said v2 i was not talking about the 116610 noob v2 lol .i was talking about the wm9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Thanks live, I own a modded tc v6 and it's gorgeous. But this watch will be fro a friend of mine who really doesn't care too much. Nevertheless, the watch should feel solid out of the box and the flaws should not be too tremendous. Do you think andrew's bp woud fit that?

live1 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 i would not wear a bp 16610 no way its looks bad imo.i would not wear an old noob either.but your friend may not notice that they look nothing like the gen .like i said sean,tc,wm9 are the only 16610 i would ever consider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netniet Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 I agree with live1, I also would go for the Sean or WM9, but they are both are hard to find, and most of the times also expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrickvilleboy Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 I think noobmariner is cheapest and closest to be honest its either you go under $150 or over $500 everything between is no good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted March 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Thanks guys. Ok I guess 500 is out of his reach. Which td does offer the noobmariner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetypal Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 You could suggest the BP classic Seadweller, it really is a marvel OTB, leagues better than any 'cheap' 16610. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetypal Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 (edited) 200 page thread on RWI below...the classic BP SD is arguably the TC of the SD world. And it's very very affordable. I have both the V6 and the BPSD, I can vouch for it's quality and value. You can even install the TC SD dial, handset and bracelet. But it is that little bit more chunky on the wrist than the 16610, of course.http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=141721 Edited March 10, 2014 by Archetypal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archetypal Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Yep, Andrew deals in BP rolex models. I sourced mine from him. Good luck, you and your bud won't be disappointed. I'd order two though, you may get envious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indywatchguy Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Or if you can't wait forget the classic sub and go for the Seadweller which is very accurate and under $200. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok that sounds promising, though I am satisfied with my gen 16610lv and v6..probably spend the money for a gen crystal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetypal Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Never say never to the slight heft of the classic SD! Good luck, I'm sure your bud will be over the moon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True words, never say never to a watch. One year ago I didn't look at pam's and AP's at all. Now my pam 111 is one of my favorite watches and I am soon getting an AP safari The SD bp looks like a stunner and I am sure my mate will be very happy with it. With his knowledge I am sure he won't see any flaws Hopefully he's not joining the forum and stay happy with it unmodded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
