perry563 Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 Well I finally recieved the new sub and as usual Neil was 100% correct. The pictures distort this watches look. Its a fantastic watch but not without the typical issues.... CG need trimming Bad pearl but I have to say its better than what I have on my 2 year old MBW. The pearl has a glazed appearance somewhat like the gen. You can almost see a round pearl under the glaze again like a gen. Still needs a new pearl though Insert is floating Crown is slightly oversize Noob dial is better Bracelet end lugs are flush with the case lugs...should be recessed slightly below the case lugs. I like the watch. The engraving is no where near as noticable as the pictures Neil posted. I have 6 rep subs and overall I like this one the best. Date mag is centered perfectly and the date just about fills the window. Overlay is much improved over older MBW. Bracelet is hollow center link type with an excellent divers extension which does not pop open all the time like all the others. All I need now is someone to mod this for me. Any very good modder out there like to mod this watch and do a before and after pictorial for the forum? I think everyone would be interested in seeing the results.

perry563 Posted February 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 This is not the NOOB..this is a true MBW type. Neil was in BK and bought one to take back. I ended up buying it from him. I cant upload pictures but I do want to mod this watch so maybe the modder can do a before and after pictorial? Just need to find a modder!
