jdavis Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 All replicas have some flaws and the best ones aren't always the expensive ones. The Ultimate or Perfect ones are more marketing than reality. Look in the watch review section and see By Tor's watch review of the Noobmariner. It is an inexpensive replica that has most of the right stuff and can be had with either the Asian or the ETA movement. Since you are in EU, you might contact Narikaa or other UK dealers who can provide you with the "Noob" and avoid customs issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Spend a bit of time having a look through the Rolex area. I would advise going for the Noobmariner, it is possibly the best out of the box replica at an untouchable price. If you are willing to spend more, and mod the watch, you can't beat an 'MBW' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildee Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 Look into bklm1234's submariner. It's a custom made to order, it's a little more on price but good out of the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 BK's sub is WAY cheaper that that $500 ultimate. Thats crazy.. thats more than an MBW. The best out of the box sub is the Noobmariner. Just do some reading and you will see for yourself. But definatly check out by-tors reviews 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdavis Posted April 26, 2008 Report Share Posted April 26, 2008 MBW=Maria's best watch, a high quality replica. Maria is no longer selling watches. MBK=Shopping Center in Bangkok that has the shop/stall that sells this high quality replica. Forget the MBW/MBK watches. They are expensive and require skills or a lot of money to modify to be very close to the genuine. As others have told you, BKLM is your best source for a very close to genuine "NOOB" replica. He can source the base watch for you as well as expertly make the changes it needs to be close to perfection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perry563 Posted April 27, 2008 Report Share Posted April 27, 2008 The new MBW has a excellent hollow link bracelet and great fit and finish along with deep rehaut and a vastly improved dial. Its flaws are thick CG and thin rehaut thickness. The BK mariner has all the bells and whistles and only falls short in terms of rehaut depth by a mm or so. Both are excellent watches. The extra care taken by BK to personally mod and test his watches give them the upper hand. Buy a BK mariner and you get a fully modded swiss eta powered sub for 360 bucks...you cant go wrong.
