Is that the Swiss 7750 version of the Timewalker Chrono? Maybe it's just the angle, but your datewheel looks really good. Hook us up with some wrist shots of the MB's.

Still looks great. "Androsh" use the same pics from their Asain versions. If you go to kings site you can see how nice the date wheel looks on the Swiss version.

But the gen is under 2 grand so why spend around $700 for a rep, I'd rather get the Asian version or suck it up and buy the gen.

Even the swiss version seems to have the date aligned to far to the right within the datewheel cutout.

You can find the genuine on the net for under 2 Grand if you know where to look. That's funny you mention the old school Timewalker, I thought it was such a cool rep, even with faux chronos, MNOT BLANC, plastic (felt like it anyway) bracelet, etc. I'm glad they got it right now. The non-chrono version is probably one of the most accurate replicas ever.

I thought you can only get asian 7750? I saw that on trevor's site, figured that's pretty much all there is? also be careful with the crowns, someone on this board lost one on his. another example of an overpriced rep that falls apart.

Well I haven't looked at submariners a lot in a while but the rehaut looks shallow in that to me compared to a gen. But vdub I thought you were the one who was into 16613? Maybe I'm mistaken. That's what I started hunting for and I ended with that. Haven't bought a black one. But these days I'm not as concerned with all the flaws on the submariners, there are a LOT of good timepieces that look like submariners with rolex logos on them these days.. I'd suggest wear them and enjoy them :) nobody knows the difference in the real world but the jeweler if you show them :)

i think it's just the angle of the photograph cuz it looked like there was some CG work or improvement;

oops... sure it's the angle now :(

anwyways, you still have a nice Sub there! Like the Pearl! My noobmariner Pearl is a POS :( bezel edge looks nice too.
