Rolex Sub-C… rsh Grail Edition (Photo Shoot)

[phillycheez]

Soo... I was lucky enough to snag this from rsh in the sales section the other day and boy was I lucky! He did not lie, this IS the best Rolex Ceramic Submariner to date.

First, I would like to say dealing with rsh was by far the best transaction I have dealt with on RWI. He is a very knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy guy who will go above and beyond for you.

I thought about giving a review on comparing rsh's sub-c to other reps but instead I'll just take some sweet macro shots and you can be the judge.

rsh mods…

-Re-Lumed
-Correct hands!!
-bracelet links are hand picked from several to insure a super tight fit.
-Case is an earlier version with correct wide crown guards versus newer one
-a newer ceramic insert with the brighter lettering and lower profile centered pearl
-BK datewheel overlay applied with centered 21
-regulated
-water-resistant tested

truly a one of a kind...

Now on with the show!

Hope you enjoyed the rep porn



** For anybody who is thinking of PM'ing rsh to do builds please keep in mind that he has stated that he cannot mod a sub to THIS extent anymore as this was his grail build. He used all of his best parts from different subs to build this particular sub. This was very time consuming and he couldn't imagine being able to do multiple builds like this. He did state he may be able to do some light modding for some members.

[Bonesey]

Gonna have to go with Superman and say I hate you too

 

[QinetiQ]

WOW!!! Congratz, it's a stunner

 

[Bonesey]

I'm actually envious how proud the crystal stands from the bezel insert compared to my sub c.

 

[rolly_olly]

I'm jealous

And I hate you too!!

[mkalbaker]

I feel so loved here.

I don't hate you! I envy you, your quickness, and am upset that I didn't get to it first. Dang it. Maybe next time will be my turn....oh wait this is ONE of a kind...there won't be a next time. I will just have to buy your's from you!

 

[phillycheez]

there won't be a next time. I will just have to buy your's from you!

You just reminded me... a member was willing to pay me more than I bought it for!

I had to decline as this watch is priceless.

Damn Philly! When I first came across rsh's C-Sub I was on it like it was Jessica Alba's ass. At the time there were no posts. I KNEW this was "The One" but, I was struggling with the fact that it was $495. I left the thread. Then I began warring with myself. "Your going to spend that money eventually" or, "you just spent $440 on BK's DSSD, hell, what's an extra $495??". The rationalizing continued. By the time I got back it was "fellas, this is probably going to philly, on hold for 12 hours while we sort a couple of items". And, like Jessica Alba's ass, it just shimmied away into the deep blue...

Congratulations. Great pictorial. Exemplary watch!! Enjoy it my friend!!! :woot:

Great looking watch.

Too bad that with all those great touches the rehaut is off. There's another "one off" somewhere (here or RWG or Geeks) and the rehaut is perfect!

 

[fersi]

A keeper......very nice. Enjoy!

 

[johnnydeepsea]

Very Nice Watch!

 

[phillycheez]

Thanks all!

@g30: you snooze you lose!

@tah: yeah, sucks about the rehaut but it was between that or correct crown guards... there was nothing rsh could do about that. That's all on the factory. Does the one on repgeek have correct hands? I think that's the most important mod.

 

[rsh]

Thanks everyone for the kind words.

Great looking watch.

Too bad that with all those great touches the rehaut is off. There's another "one off" somewhere (here or RWG or Geeks) and the rehaut is perfect!

TAH - that was not a noob ceramic sub - no noob sub has had correct rehaut around- that other sub has other issues that make it less desirable

 

[tah]

that other sub has other issues that make it less desirable

I'm still learning. What were the less desirable features?
