Best MilSub these days...

[folkert]

Hello group, i've been reading your posts already for a few weeks, and now is the time to post my first message to this forum.

i've fallen in love for the vintage rolex submariners, esspecially the milsub version.. and i've seen a few 5517 reps on the net lately, but want to know which version is the best buy for quality and closest to the gen version.

of course i know to look for the ETA movement, but things like engravings, dial and hands differ alot. I don't want a version which looks too new, but maybe all version need extra attention for modding etc. to get the best gen-a-like feel.

to say this in a few words: What is the best option to get the best Milsub for your bucks these days.

thanks, folkert
