Ronin Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Ok, that is not bad at all. Actually, I like it better then my Silix ROL187. -Ronin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy333 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks for the new pics. This looks like 1 of the same Subs that Silix sells (for nearly 4 times the price). Unfortunately, it is also 1 of the models with the (incorrectly) high-profile case, which is not suitable for constructing these early CG-less Subs. However, the bezel & insert are. And since the seller has this watch, he most likely also has the low-profile version that I need. What is the website address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seafoam Posted March 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks for the new pics. This looks like 1 of the same Subs that Silix sells (for nearly 4 times the price). Unfortunately, this is 1 of the models that has a high-profile, which is not suitable for my purposes. However, the bezel & insert are very useful in building vintage CG-less Subs. And since the seller has this 1, they may also have the low-profile version that I need. What is the website address? exactreplicas.com this particular vintage is not shown in their catalog. i looked at the vintage/non swiss that has a crown guard and got this one so you would be rolling the dice. also my 50% off was a "limited time offer". you can try and enter the discount code and see what happens. it is crunch50. good luck.

maxman Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Thanks for the pics Brian. Just a heads up for anyone interested. Exactreplicas has many, many complants about them. It might be a good idea to check Complantsborad.com. Good luck Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Seafoam - As you said, I did not see your watch (or similar CG-less Subs) listed on their site & although the price is definitely right, I am not willing to throw $59 into a black hole in the hope that I will get the golden ring. But I appreciate the info & pics. If anyone else does order from them & happens to get a CG-less Sub-style watch (with the low-profile case) like the 1 I used from Silix (ROLS176), please let me know.

freddy333 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Good luck with your search. For the record - I am NOT searching for another case at this time. I am just curious to see if there is a cheaper, quicker & more reliable alternative to Silix for future reference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
