Craytonic Posted March 18, 2006 Report Share Posted March 18, 2006 Are people doing any mods to these (CG, Lume, I have seen some benzel replacements) or just wearing them like it is. Any comments on general accuracy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

700club Posted March 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Here's mine. Aren't we luckyyy? yes, very nice! does your sub have hollow or solid mid links? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Is the 16610 case the same size as the vintage subs? Maybe a dumb question but I have never owned a contemporary sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetsons Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Believe so, kruzer. I've worn both gens and the cases appear identical, at least in dimensions. Largest physical difference obviously being the use of sapphire versus acrylic. From what I have read and discussions with George, the MBWs use a modifiied 16610 case for their vintages to accomodate the different crystal. The SD is a bit larger case resulting from the use of the HE valve. Great watches gents. Regards, Jet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leitztozeiss Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 yes, very nice! does your sub have hollow or solid mid links? thanks 700club: Mine has solid mid-links. I do have a spare bracelet with hollow mid-links, but have decided to keep the solid mid-link brackelet due to heft and solid feel. I think the hollow mid-link bracelets feel cheap.
