What he's saying is that the box supplied with the watch isn't the original, it is one that he has acquired and not of the correct period, he's not saying it's a fake box just that it's not the...
My first 'proper' watch, a Submariner 16610 bought in 2003 after my first year of being successfully self employed. Worn it daily ever since and never let me down despite never being serviced.
First time I saw one of these was when on holiday in Venice 3 or 4 years ago and I instantly fell in love with it. Of course it was displayed without a price and naively I assumed it was a new...
Excellent review, I realise Tudor aren't available in the UK officially but are there any dealers who specialise in used ones?
After much deliberating I've finally took the plunge on a 2010 DSSD. Having worn a 16610 Sub for 5 or 6 years initially the DSSD does feel a little large on my wrist - I have big wrists it is quite...
Apologies if I didn't make it clear, I'm aware of the value difference. I have convinced my old man to do as the Patek ad, ie look after the Sub so that he can pass it on to me, albeit in a reverse,...
I've just done a swap with my father for my 16610 Sub for his 16234 Datejust. There is logic to this. I was getting a bit bored of the Sub, had for 7 years from new and fancy a change however I'm...
Sorry if this has been discussed before but here goes - I have a 2004 Sub 16610 which I would like to modify to look like the 116610 LB by adding a blue bezel and blue dial, obviously I would still...
Have noticed James May wearing one occasionally, don't know if that's a good or a bad thing though...
This is a very poor pic I've just taken of my Sub, worn daily for 7 years+ and showing a few scrapes
What would be a target price for one of these?
Excuse my ignorance but is that an early 80s sub?
I've got £3500 to spend and since being a member here for a few days my head is now all over the place, can see why people chop and change so much, bit like cars, there are too many out there that I...
For just over £300 you could have a Precista PRS-3
Having never been to a watch fair can someone give me an idea of the sort of stuff that is for sale, how many sellers, prices etc
Really? Why?[/quote]
Must say that I agree with this, had an Omega Speedmaster a few years ago that came with a NATO style strap as well as the original steel bracelet. I found the NATO strap to...
there's a couple on watchfinder.co.uk
True but without bottomless pockets I don't think I would choose to have two watches that whilst are very different they are certainly from the same family and at a casual glance look very similar.
That is a super looking watch, could seriously tempt me out of my Sub Date.
Thanks again to all the lastest comments, need to brush up on photography skills I think!
Welcome fellow newbie, you will find your wish list growing by the hour!
Welcome fellow newbie
The worst launch I remember reading about was the Keating supercar a few years ago, all the press arrived expecting to drive it to find a prototype held together with sticky tape that wouldn't run!
Hi to a fellow newbie, this could be an expensive decision!
