alant Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Saw from King's site U-boat reps are out! These are in quartz but looks quite ok if not expecting it as a super rep or any where close to the gen ones, so does anyone has any opinions on these watches? Or has anyone bought any of these watches? Pls share. Thanks in advance! So tempting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manitou Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 The day i buy a U-Boat rep is the day birds crap gold and diamonds Depending on dependencies, could you please buy one? I could use some gold and diamonds ;-)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrgod Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 These have been out for some time, but have not received much attention in here. Some of the U-boats are cool.. but never something I would wear myself... As attention grabbers though, they beat every Rolex hands down!

alant Posted August 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 The 7750 versions are out too. Has anyone bought these? Any feedback or pictures will be appreciated. Or it's so unpopular that no one is buying it?? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deOnn Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 The 7750 versions are out too. Has anyone bought these? Any feedback or pictures will be appreciated. Or it's so unpopular that no one is buying it?? Thanks. I bought and received mine flightdeck 7750 today. I must have been an idiot to believe their claims. Yes, definitely they it's an inverted chrono, but on the web site it stated start-stop at 10 and reset at 8. Mine arrived with a normal inverted. 8 start-stop, 10 reset.. Probably should go kick someone now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nikos1978 Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 what is the color of your u boat fightdeck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deOnn Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 what is the color of your u boat fightdeck Got the one with orange numerals. 1. Website info was wrong. Watch functions same as gen...10:00 reset, 8:00 start stop. 2. Wasn't too sure about the numeral & hand colours...till I compared with the gen I went to look at...colour is spot on. 3. Saw some web site gens pics, the reset didn't have rivet head design...the button is flushed straight. But the gen I saw at the shop has the same riveted head as my rep. Didn't compare side by side, wouldn't dare at the shop...but am happy with the results. On the wrist...I have a really big wrist. Watch doesn't look big. Front. Markings look correct. Ignore the mis-aligned date...it's almost midnight when I took pics.. Side by side with my gen Hamilton GMT air race pushers angle clear back.

Admin Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 The U-boat caught my eye in a Jewlery store in Turkey, where I just spent my holiday. Very cool watches, if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alant Posted August 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2008 You should try wearing them! Some love it some hate it. I'm for sure won't mind having one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

celicatoe46m3 Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Sorry to bring a dead thread alive, but the U-BOAT font is actually much closer to the 9 oclock. I've got rep and gen, everything else is spot on, except that, and the caseback. The gen's sapphire is flush with the back. This one here is sticking out by 0.5mm or something obvious. It's funny because the rep has better lume than gen. =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member X Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 Seriously? The gen must be [censored]-poor! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxman Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 I like U-Boats, the only thing holding me back Is the size. I guess If a SA @ 48mm Is wearable then the 50mm Of some U-Boats should be ok. Im thinking If you Include the canteen were talking around 55mm,dam thats alot watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
