Guest carlsbadrolex Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Tear that thing apart... Feel no guilt! Im putting together a similar parts list to do the exact same thing! I consider it improvement upon a boring design! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Tough question. I happen to like that particular model, so I would probably restore it back to its original glory. If you are unsure, think about what you would do with either watch. If you want a diving/sport watch, build the Sub. If you want an all-around watch or want one that will tend to stick out more in a crowd, stick with the Oyster Perpetual (I see far more people wearing Subs on the street than OPs). But your mileage may vary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
