fitmic Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) I never understood why Rolex is so popular. The only Rolex I ever had was the infamous Colamariner,initially bought as a joke for my Coca Cola collecting friend,but I ended up keeping it for myself. I never liked Rolex because of the sizes. And the (excuse my ignorance for forgetting it's name) "Ring lock" model didn't do it for me. All my watches are >44mm. I really like the looks of the vintage subs but they are way too small for me. Then I found the Project X HS01 and instantly fell in love! I know the rep has several flaws but I simply love it. Probably more subs will follow. And I must admit that the watch wears a lot larger than it's "tiny" ~40mm. Sorry for pic quality. I used my cellphone. Watch was bought from Torobravos (fantastic service as usual).

ogladio Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 There's a risk of missing out on some great pieces if you just judge them by their diameter (and compare to eg Panerais). Wrist presence is not measured in mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 It looks great, start caring less and less about "flaws" now - it was the reason I didn´t get it some 3-4 months ago, still want it:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest REPPIN Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 I hate to push your buttons, but on your wrist, you dont need anything bigger than 40mm. That watch looks great on you and wear it well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That watch looks great on you and wear it well! You are probably correct sir, but I've had the uPO as my daily beater since it was released.

Bc1221 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 im not a fan of the maxi-dials. idk. i think the proportions are way off. the regular dials look perfect though. as far as the SubC goes though, this is one of the better variations. i HATE the thick CGs on the subC's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitmic Posted August 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Yeah They are great but i dont like that pinkish on the dial markers reason why i never Got one If I must pick something that bothers me is the pinkish colour. Second is the lack of superlume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kime Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 That looks great. There a time when I felt the same, you will soon be fully cured :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega88 Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Great watch! Real Rolex produce very robust and lasting in house chronometer grade movement. Unlike many other watch company who take the shortcut of sourcing movement from ETA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
