What do you guys think of this Rolex Submariner (Blue)?

[nicholasandrew11]

First of all, is intime.co legit?

What is your overall impression of this watch, do you think it is good, and worth buying?

What are the pros and cons of the movement it has?

Also it says its waterproof, does anyone have any experience with intime.co claiming their products are waterproof, do you think it's really waterproof?

Yes. Intime is a trusted dealer here. The watch is great, but I do not suggest buying it with the A3135 movement. Since it's not best quality, and almost no watchmaker will touch it if it breaks. I highly suggest the Swiss ETA option. Also what matters here is that you like it. I don't know about the waterproofness, other members will chime in.

agreed with mclaren.
but buy in confidence with any of the dealers listed in supported vendors or trusted dealers. they all get the same stock even if its not listed on their site.
best thing to do is dont rush into a purchase if your not sure.. read read read read!

1) intime is legit but I'm not so sure about which URL they are on now. Plenty of URL cloning out there so perhaps someone familiar can help here

2 & 3) You need to do your own research mate. There's tons of stickys and a search function.

4) I Never trust a TD on 2 things: Swiss and Waterproof, unless they can show me evidence.

 

[mclarendude]

And I agree with both gentlemen above.

Hi and welcome to rwi. 1. The site You posted is legit and You should buy Rol and AP from Ryan - imo very good and reliable TD 2. The best waterproof one (silicon-grease at least the crown and test it) is the SD - and You should get it for this price as well, one of the best reps out there and a classic http://intime.co/product.php?id_product=1162

to avoid if possible:
- modified to Rolex Cal.3135 look - potentially unreliable, difficult parts if it needs service, too expensive for what it is
- buy the submariner in stainless steel and black - its the look to go for, if You love that one, You can always get the blue later, normally You don´t and get the Batman GMT (blue/black bezel) instead

You asked for advice, that´s my opinion, have fun and enjoy

yep, legit, and the asian 2836 functions exactly as the swiss does and is usually 100 to 150 bucks less. and you know what you are getting with the asian 2836. Never had to have one serviced yet, and have had one of them for 5 years.

I agree the A2836 is by far the best value, great movement and it will be what it says it is. I don't care what anyone says the chances of getting a new Swiss ETA movement in a new rep today is almost zero.

I assume you are aware the gen blue Submariner is only available in white gold and is a $40,000 watch, not everyone can pull off a $40K watch...

 

[letterboxmind]

I agree with psy. Blue is cool, especially with the faux white gold. But it comes down to whether you are confident to pull off wearing a 40k watch.
