perry563 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Have you all heard that TTK is offering a new MBW...2007 model with a hollow mid link bracelet and ROLEX inscribed along the rehaut? Any impressions?
mezzanine Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 When you say that it has 'rolex' inscribed along the rehaut- I thought it was only the newer releases like the yachtmaster II and the ceramic GMT? It would be nice if there were a good bracelet option for those that don't want to drop all sorts of cash on a genuine. Is TTK releasing a re-design of the vintages? I'm assuming that he's talking about a new modern model...
perry563 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 There is a blurry picture of it in the Graham Swordfish thread. Take a look. Are you saying that the latest Subs do not have inscribed rehauts?
lazarini Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 As i remember new subs do infact come with that engraving on the rehaut ... IMHO do they shoud not put that on the "tool" watch like the sub it takes away all the remaining character of this piece ... Laz
Tribal Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Yes It's on the way I have also contact to MBW and the new MNBW 16610 comes with engraved Rehaut like the 2800 Submariner. The Bezel assembly is like on a Gen Submariner... I have some Pics yet but Maria told me not to post them,because there are made some changes on the watch... I keep you updated
HauteHippie Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Tribal, come on. We all know that you already have three of them!
rek001 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Tribal, how is Maria these days now that the secret source has been discovered? Does Maria still do custom orders?
ahchard Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 I actually saw the watch a few days ago and held it in my hands when I was buying a PP Nautilus... did not even know it was a new model till i saw this post...
bruce79 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 ROLEX inscribed along the rehaut I can't believe Rolex is doing this. Hopefully it will only last a few years and thirty years later they'll become collectors pieces...if it sticks till the end of time, I'm definitely going to buckle down and buy a gen pre 2008 sub and wait thirty years till they become collectors pieces. Either way it's a win-win. I'm getting a collectors piece out of the deal

Star69 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 i hope they f@ck it up - i don't want to buy an other Sub ...

FasTTaP Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Can't wait to see those pics!!! (especialy pics from TTK...)
mezzanine Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 The observation about the bezel assembly makes me wonder if they were able to get a hold of the WM9 subs, and have used that as a base for the newer release? The intrigue and drama is driving me nuts, I'm curious to see what this one is going to be like. I'm not likely to buy one, only because I'm so loaded up on subs/SD's already (by my standard), but I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to this on the basis of the rehaut engraving if it was done well, unlike many others...
