Super review. I'm hoping TTK restocks his MBWs. I'm deciding about this one or a DRSD.

Great review! Very informative with wonderful pictures.

You are doing a buyers guide? So the noobmariner may be the one all Rolex lovers should have ($99.00) ?

I had the same watch in the past, modded by Palpatine with gen tube and crown and CG's modded a bit. I sold it and I got repented, so I bought another one from TTK which I received last week. Taking in account that I had this watch modded before, I have it now again without mods and that I have a friend of mine with a gen that I had the opportunity to compare with last weekend, I would like to make some comments to people thinking about making mods to this watch:

NO NEED OF MODS UNLESS YOU ARE A VERY PICKY PERSON

No way to spot this is a rep while you have it in your wrist. The bezel insert is very very close to genuine in color and brightness. Only pearl may be a bit different but I've been making window shopping in Z

I was really hoping someone would provide feedback on these new breed MBW's. Thanks so much.

Just returning a bit of what we have received from many other members...

noobmariner is a great starter sub, no doubt.

I've got both and unless you're a verrry picky person, the noobmariner for $99 is the best value out there. They are very close.

The MBW is a definite if you intend to to all the mods..........picky,picky,picky

Great review BK. I am still waiting on my LV MBW from TTK.

Is it a norm that the MBW's are NOT waterproof? All my other reps have gone swimming right out of the box with no problems whatsoever?

TTK said he pressure tests his MBWs to 2 ATM.

Take care with the water... my first MBW 16610 was not waterproof at all...

My lv mbw, isnt waterproof either. But it had the gen crown, and tube installed, so that must be why.
