bruce79 Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Here are a few photos of my favorite Rollie. It's got it's flaws, cg's, lug holes, date wheel...but I still love it. I've replaced the insert but that's about it...the picture make the pearl look like crap but it's really much better in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopypants Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 (edited) too bad the bezel wasn't thick! but overall one of my fav's... Still wainting for Maria to make a modern SD with correct thick case, deep caseback, correct bezel, and work'd out flaws... Ok, so basically, reworking the entire damn thing!!! But, I would REALLY love to see a 16660!!!

bruce79 Posted April 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 The bezel isn't as thick as it should be but it's definitely thicker than most sd reps. If only by a smudge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eunomians Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Real nice. I had one that I sold of a year ago. I miss it. I will buy another one some day. I, too, look forward to a perfect SD. One fine day I presume... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoTone Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 The Sea Dweller was my very first rep. A TW Best from EL modded by BRJ. I still have it and wear it on a regular basis. I work in an environment where Rolex's are the standard and no one has ever called me out. Excellent piece IMHO! TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 (edited) Really nice SD, I like it. Generally... I don't want any more Rollies but just like my friend Eunomians I can consider a modern SD (if a decent one comes out). This is the best I've seen no doubt. Actually it might be the same watch as the old TW best version. Edited April 17, 2006 by By-Tor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it might be the same watch as the old TW best version. You're right. I got this from a fellow member and it originally came from Roger. It's the old tw best stock and from what I've heard, these are among the few that are the correct thickness. I think the crystal is thicker than the sd's out there now and the caseback is nice and thick too. With regards to mods, t's a good base to start from.
