dbane883 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 Please provide me with a compelling reason(s) why I shouldn't buy this. Because, in the absence of any, I know I will be buying this within a year. I think of all the modern Rolexes, this is bar none, the best offering they have.

coffindodger Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 just got mine yesterday from Toro, will post pics later.
coffindodger Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 i quick wrist shot of mine that just arrived
dbane883 Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Posted October 24, 2014 lugs are a bit thick.. but I guess thats what V2/3/4 are for. Is that the same case as the Noob SubC? For me, it will be gen all the way...
coffindodger Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 its ok but not in no way gen quality. its a BP not Noob version. I would wait for the next Noob version but then it will probably go up $150. The gen is £6,900 in the UK so out of my price range
Bc1221 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 eh.id rather have the classic SD. looks much better imo. none of the ceramics look good to me.
watcher Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 i quick wrist shot of mine that just arrived I'm pretty sure that's noob buddy not bp! Insert says noob Crown and guards say noob Pearl says noob Thick our hand says noob :-)
Powell21 Posted October 24, 2014 Report Posted October 24, 2014 Threw mine in a nato and tooled around Boston today.

droptopman Posted October 25, 2014 Report Posted October 25, 2014 Lately I am only interested in vintage pieces, but of the modern Rolex's that is a good choice.
ledonster Posted October 25, 2014 Report Posted October 25, 2014 Lovely piece Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
smoothunit Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 Finally pulled the pin and got my first ever rep from Andrew. While not a perfect rep by any strecth of the imagination I really love the look and fit.

If gen, go for it, you can always flip it for close to what you bought it for if you buy smartly. If rep, maybe wait for the "super rep" 116600 that is supposedly coming soon. In the meantime, just remove the cyclops on a rep 116610 and you are good to go.

Mind you this doesn't look too shabby either
sgtguk Posted January 9, 2015 Report Posted January 9, 2015 You mean like this... Mind you this doesn't look too shabby either Very very nice piece mate and I do mean both of them !
mir36 Posted January 10, 2015 Report Posted January 10, 2015 (edited) Going gen too. Treated myself to a birth year 5513, and after a few months it just didn't click with me and I sold it. Treating myself to a gen SD 4000 for my bday this year Edited January 10, 2015 by mir36
mrbobdobalina Posted January 10, 2015 Report Posted January 10, 2015 You mean like this... Sweet. I think that is my next watch. I think Rolex missed the boat a little with the SD4000. I think it would be better at 42mm with the 15+mm height. It would also make it a good intermediate step between the Sub and DSSD. Still an great watch at 40mm though.
