cableguy Posted July 23, 2007 Report Posted July 23, 2007 i think i've fell in love with the huge crystal on these watches. its a totally different look from todays watches...... now to find one for sale, and hopefully they will take paypal too! lol I'm taking the advise of you folks who have told me to keep my So Called Perfect sub for my modern needs and go with a good MBW vintage.... my poor wallet
alant Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Yap those vintage MBW rolex are my new love too as the design is like so classic. But now hard to find. You have any ideas where to get them?
Dizzy Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 I have always loved the older submariners. i think it was the lug holes that captured me. i just love the look of them. The more i read here at RWG the more i love the older watches. Now i am into 1665s and 1680s and PAM Fiddys on old worn leather.. mmm worn leather.. Lonnie
Stephane Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Bravo Here my favourite list for you: 1665 Great White 1680 White 5513 Have fun and put gen crystals if you have to choose only one mod Cheers Stephane
alant Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Hi Stephane, thanks for the list! Do you know of any website with pictures on vintage rolex models so that I can take a look and understand more? Thanks.
manuel Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Hi these are the vintage mbw rolex. Best vintage replicas out there. I have had 3 but sold them all. MBW vintage rolex do fit genuine parts. You can PM if you have any doubt. Manuel
tmg Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Alant, The forum is a huge wealth of pictures and info about the MBW vintage pieces. Be prepared to do a lot of reading and viewing , there are a lot of beautiful vintage MBW's pieces the members have here. TTK is the main source for them. Here's a little more to whet your appetite. These are my Double Red and White 1665's. -TMG
Kollektor Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 You will love your GWSD. But it will be hard to pry off your wrist when you're ready to send it to the Modding Team... The relume is a must, since there is absolutely no lume on the dial markers at all; just a small bit on the pearl and hands. Enjoy!
Stephane Posted July 24, 2007 Report Posted July 24, 2007 Hi Stephane, thanks for the list! Do you know of any website with pictures on vintage rolex models so that I can take a look and understand more? Thanks. Well there are tons of sites...but, to my opinion, the best one is this one. If you search for topics about these watches you will get far more information than what you'll gather from the web. We have incredible specialists like Freddy333, RepAustria, Tribal, Edge, ...and of course our main masters, Nanuq, By_tor, Ubi, Pug, ...or BKLM1234, L-Dizzle, ... Sorry guys, I cannot name you all. I could give you obvious links like http://www.vintagesubmariner.com/vintagesubs.html but it will not teach you as much as our members can... My only opinion though. Cheers Stephane
Dizzy Posted July 25, 2007 Report Posted July 25, 2007 http://www.doubleredseadweller.com good ref site also
cableguy Posted July 25, 2007 Author Report Posted July 25, 2007 i think i misspoke...i think i was lookinag at the 1665 white sub actually...... hmmm too bad i dont have unlimited money i'd buy them all like Stephane
