oakland Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 After a visit to the AD a week ago I am itching for a blue and gold two tone Sub. That combined with a little tax refund have me leaning towards picking one up. I've read the general two tone reviews (thanks to all of you) but I just wanted to see if anyone had purchased one from andrew, and if so, your thoughts. I'm not picky as far as accuracy, i know about the plating issues, especialy where the bracelet meest the watch. He has one that is 18K not 14, I'm curious to know if anyone can vouch for the overall appearance. All of your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gold is pretty close as I wore the watch to the AD and kinda done a side by side (through the glass) well I cant say about how long this plating will last but this is about 9 months old.

coolfire Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Well it sure looks like the 14K gold plating has held up really well so far... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyp1 Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 (edited) Well it sure looks like the 14K gold plating has held up really well so far... I was warned that the TT reps weren't up to the standards that the SS rep were. They were right sad thing is this watch has the most unbelievable sharp dial/date wheel. The SS on the other hand will have a very accurate bracelet ,case and a reasonable rehault but a pitiful dial/ date wheel. Basically I think with the reps we have today you have to choose a watch on what you can and cant deal with as their all flawed in some way.

hansolo Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Go with the 14k it's closer to the gen. Then have RBJ69 work on it if you think it needs anything else... = ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
