Bigdoggy Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 I thought I would try the Black Strap for variety. what do you think???
leitztozeiss Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 You know, I tried that recently and actually liked it . . . until I looked closer and noticed the 'trademark' MBW sense of humor . . . "Polex"
TJGladeRaider Posted May 23, 2006 Report Posted May 23, 2006 You know, I tried that recently and actually liked it . . . until I looked closer and noticed the 'trademark' MBW sense of humor . . . "Polex" I have long been curious about that. Was there ever a Rolex that had this misspelling - that's sure hard to believe, but why on earth would company that goes to such great lengths toward perfection put a big, red, flashing neon "FAKE" sign on their product? Very confusing. Bill
halley Posted May 25, 2006 Report Posted May 25, 2006 Very confusing. Certainly to avoid that confusion, without those big intentional flaws how many can tell the difference beween a mbw case and a genuine one?
Watchmeister Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 Every "perfect" Rolex rep has it's tradeoffs. Polex on MBW means no leather strap. To get good sized case and asymetric pushers on vintage Daytonas, you lose the hour dial of the chrono. The trials and tribulations of reps.
Highflyingclive Posted May 26, 2006 Report Posted May 26, 2006 Nonetheless, a great improvement on the ghastly metal bracelet. I think that I'll have to try this on my Colamariner.
manuel Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 you are very lucky. Actually mine is red, but i wanted it white. of course i am not going to send it back.. Regards

Regards Hey Manual, The RED sub is much more desired watch. I think you should be happy to have a MBW Red! Just my 2 cts. Enjoy your new watch my friend..
manuel Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 Thanks, too bad i dont have screwdivers for adjusting the band, Next month i´ll buy a kit from PT.
Pugwash Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 Hey Manual, The RED sub is much more desired watch. I think you should be happy to have a MBW Red! The red MBW is a dream I hope one day comes true for me.
manuel Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 pughwash: it was a dream for me too, but was very irresponsible and i managed to buy it. The iwc gst is a dream for me too. made of titanium is such a beaty...
