By-Tor Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Look how horrible the new CN Subs are (just arrived at King's site). I'm at a loss why our dealers are even selling these junks when there are excellent otb Subs abailable (like the Noobmariner)... these CN versions become worse and worse every year. I actually find them almost hilarious, as there's absolutely nothing done correctly on these watches: This is the Mother of all f*ckups. Is it "Perfect Sub v2"? Well it has a wok case, no rehaut thickness, pimply pearl, ugly engraving, cyclops & datewheel too right, one millimeter of gap between the SEL and lugs both sides (wrist hair coolers), laughable cg's, etc. etc. After years of bad Submariner reps these are the all time low, imho. "New model"? They supposedly have a ETA inside... yeah well, what a waste of good movement. The dials look good, they have probably taken them from the Noobmariner and f*cked up everything else. This is Canal Street accuracy. I think the only reasonable explanation for this monstrosity is that some ripoff brands (like Alpha, Gruen or Invicta) are using these same cases... and they're not even trying to make them look accurate. PLEASE DEALERS: DON'T SELL THIS GARBAGE TO NEWBIES! THEY DESERVE BETTER! Now take a look at the new WokMaster. I think I'm getting a headache. PS: This has nothing to do with King, who's a great dealer selling 99% top stuff. I'm just amazed what kind of sh*te the factory is still putting out, in year 2008... it's especially amazing because we've seen so much top stuff lately.

georgegrasser Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 They look just fine to me. However I've been told I don't have an eye for details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mickey Padge Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Wow, they are really bad indeed! The conical rehaut is the worst ever! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perry563 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 UGG...these have the most NON existent rehaut thickness I have ever seen in any sub. Simply awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir-Lancelot Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 looks like chit. That rehaut and that pearl. Yuck. The Subs we were buying 3-4 years ago were better than these. Take a old TWB case w/holes and rep IT, but please stop trying to rep a Rolex Submariner. They just dont get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 i think my 6$ submariner rep from the beach-ad looks better cheers, Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted June 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 LOL Frank. Oh yes it does... except the date mag (which is a bit off). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonSlayer Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Date mag is a bit off indeed I don't think we can ever understand the thinking of the CN rep factories. At times they bring out amazing reps, and other times they f*ck them up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
