Aggie88 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 I've now been wearing my new TC Submariner Rouge for 3 days. Out of the box, it was even better than I expected. The contrast of the beautiful black dial with the red Yachtmaster second hand is stunning. I think that the negative DWO (white numbers on black background) is even classier than the original. (Face it, I'm not pretending it's a gen...it's a great homage). I do agree that the date numbers a slightly more left justified than the gen, but I am more than satisfied with the watch. I think that it's going to be hard to wear the other watches in my collection at this point! 1
508-Fanatic Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 That's fantastic, i really like it! 1
Resistor Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 "Fantasy model" is a more accurate description. An homage does not feature the original's branding. 1
Aggie88 Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Posted November 23, 2014 "Fantasy model" is a more accurate description. An homage does not feature the original's branding. Point well taken. By the way, what are the odds that the second hand and hour hand would be perfectly aligned in the when I took the 1st photo!

Aggie88 Posted November 23, 2014 Author Report Posted November 23, 2014 One in sixty .................... ...but actually the odds are much longer than 1 in 60, unless it were a quartz watch with 1 tick every second. ;-)
Resistor Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 I think the white on black date wheel looks so much better than black on white. I'm surprised that more OEM's didn't choose to do it this way. 1
kernow Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 Great watches, I do like the reversed date wheel.
Snoobert Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 That looks awesome, I've got a Milsub with a moder getting "aged" and I too have asked for a red second hand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Nightwatch Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 Some gen-owners put a red yachtmaster seconds hand on theirs. It just looks good. Congrats on Yours, mine says hello:) 2

jpz5142 Posted November 23, 2014 Report Posted November 23, 2014 By the way, what are the odds that the second hand and hour hand would be perfectly aligned in the when I took the 1st photo! 1:480 And they're not perfectly aligned, a bit off but very close... 2
