What is the best Sub replica you can get?

I have the real one but don’t want to wear it day to day anymore as there is a massive crazy of watch theft.

So I’d like to get the best Sub replica you can get and keep my real one safe as a investment.

Ive read tons on here. The advice is awesome but it’s made it even harder to pick one.

Want it to see what comes out top.

Thanks guys.

Keep the real one. If you are about to get robbed tell them its a fake.

Thanks for the reply

shortlegs. Also why is a simple post like this frowned upon? Having never owned one I’d just like to ask people’s thoughts. Apologises if I offended anyone

Sell your gen sub and get something else. Doesn't matter, any and every sub is a fake, per general perception :) Once that is understood, and if you still want to wear a sub, just get the cheapest rep which keeps good time

Because it usually implies the poster did not bother doing his own research and is relying on people to spoon feed him information.

It would be better if you asked specific questions on specific reps, like the 3 that you mentioned.

Between the 3, each has its pros and cons, so it really is up to you to decide which pros you like, and which con you can live with.

What is wrong with spoon-feeding information? I don't mind.

just buy a $15 shitty sub replica that is obvious from far away.
you're afraid of thieves grabbing your gen sub, but want to buy the best rep that looks like a gen sub. Chances are the thief still targets you, why take the risk??

If you can afford a gen sub then I would assume you could afford insurance? Where is it that you people live that people steal wristwatches off your arm?

NCRich. London mate. Ready about it. Yes I have insurance but with a clone I can just take it of without thinking plus many are getting clones now as if they keep Knicking clones it dies down.

so which one did you decide to get?

He got the best one which is the one you like best.

I'm glad I live where people usually don't steal watches off your arm. Anyway I wouldn't wear a fake in the hope of scaring off future theives when they discover it was a fake lol. I'm ensured against robbery so that should cover the watch.

Also there are more rep models to consider. For example VRF is much nicer than ZZF imo.
