tenacious_b Posted November 26, 2008 Report Posted November 26, 2008 Everyone, I don't know how accurate this is, since these kinds of due dates always seem to end up being somewhat fluid, but Andrew just replied to my request for an ETA for the 1:1 Ultimate DSSD, and he said we should expect to see it in late December. Cheers, Bryan
deltatahoe Posted November 26, 2008 Report Posted November 26, 2008 thanks for the update bryan -- if this one is the same case build quality as the ceramic bezel gmt ii, i think we have a lot to look forward to deltatahoe
lazarini Posted November 26, 2008 Report Posted November 26, 2008 if only it would be a watch u could actually wear without ripping ure hand of and constantly bumping it somewhere still if they do it in GMT IIc standards i bet they sell a bundle... December u say sounds like a pre-commercial to a holiday best seller Laz
Genrep Posted November 26, 2008 Report Posted November 26, 2008 [Andrew emailed me yesterday with the same message. To be on the safe side, I have "pre ordered" (not that he accepts these).. Looking fwd to a sizeable Rolex!!!
mb7000 Posted December 7, 2008 Report Posted December 7, 2008 where do I find Andrews watch has anyone seen his new deepsea ?
Dizzy Posted December 8, 2008 Report Posted December 8, 2008 yeah its not really any better than the other versions.. the bezel insert is terrible. I thiink you need to buy all THREE versions and make a franken to get a proper one.. just like in the old MBW noobmariner switch-a-roo days haha

I thiink you need to buy all THREE versions and make a franken to get a proper one.. just like in the old MBW noobmariner switch-a-roo days haha Realistically, I wonder if we will actually see a true 1:1 identical-to-gen rep. But even after modding, the close-to-real gen is likely to cost not more than 15% of the gen - and it always hurts less scratching a rep than a gen. BTW, does anyone know where one could buy gen/close-to-gen 'pearls'? These would help....

Cheers, Bryan Just in case its been missed by some, Trusty's Deep SD is out now: http://www.tt88time.com/index.php?main_pag...eyword=ROLSD006 I'm eagerly waiting for my stocking filler!
Dizzy Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 rumor has it that there is yet ONE more version coming out this month... the one we've been waiting for...
Rolexman Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 rumor has it that there is yet ONE more version coming out this month... the one we've been waiting for... Get-the-f*ck-outta-heey...
jot9011 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 rumor has it that there is yet ONE more version coming out this month... the one we've been waiting for... Can anyone confirm this?
Samurai Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 Not sure...Josh says this is the best version as it has been made 1:1.
poopypants Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 There it is again... "1:1" So does that mean ANY/ALL gen parts will fit on this thing?? I think we have learned from the past on this false marketing guys!
Guest nikos1978 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 does anyone had order the new one or not??? i can not understand if final will be out these super best version
robertk Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 I think this one is it for now. BTW, I think when they say 1:1 they mean eyeballed to the real deal not a picture. I'm sure that most parts won't interchange and both Josh and Andrew have said that to me repeatedly. Just means the factory had their hands on the real watch. Forgeries are still forgeries and will never be perfect. Anybody who thinks otherwise, I got a bridge I want to sell you.
Dizzy Posted December 9, 2008 Report Posted December 9, 2008 1:1 is marketing [censored]... it all depends which factory is building it... a good source tells me that there is yet one more version due to be released before the end of the month. Thats all i know right now... It might have the same problems as all these other versions but who knows...
Ztech Posted December 10, 2008 Report Posted December 10, 2008 I see that Perfect Clones (Josh) and Trusty time (Andrew) have a so called 1:1 DSSD out now. Can any one chime in on how good it is? Thanks.
MADRED7 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 Yesterday I got the V2 of the deep sea....unfortunately D.O.A.....but the dealer takes acer of it and makes an exchange. The watch itself was wonderful and the only give-away on the rep were 2 things....the bezel is not smooth but engraved...and the crystal is by far too thin and is not domed! To be quite honest...the rep looks way better than the real deal, tried the Real DeepSea in October and was shocked by the distortion of the domed crystal.....it looks like those old-time-breitling rep crystals...pure horror. Looking forwrd to receive a working piece...cheers Theo
Samurai Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 So the confusion still continues....is the current version, that is being touted as 1:1, the best that is going to be made available for now.....or is there another version in the making?

archibald Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 River just posted one that seems to be the same as the "1:1" version judging by the bad bezel/insert and xtal.
watchlover1 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Posted December 11, 2008 All I am new to the RWG and have been reading and doing a lot of research on this site. I should be receiving mine sometime next week. I will post the pictures and we can all review together. I was told that this is the new and improved. We shall see.
