114060 From PureTime. Also a comparison to 16610 from iOffer

Hey everyone! So finally my first rep from a TD came in, shipping took about 8 days which is not bad. Shout out to PureTime for the quick responses and making sure everything is perfect. This is a 114060 with an Asian 2813 movement, I was looking to buy something less expensive than a 250-400 dollar rep so I decided with this one. Without further a do here are the pics!

My initial Reaction to the watch was that the weight was much more present compared to my 16610. The 16610 was purchased for 25 bucks through iOffer, not a horrible beginner (kept time for a couple of months) but does not come close to PureTime. The only mods on my 16610 is a replaced ceramic bezel. Ioffer sent me a Pepsi bezel so I decided to purchase a replacement on amazon and swap it out. Another flaw that was sent was a GMT two-tone bracelet rather than just a stainless steel one. Let the photos speak for themselves!

Well that's about it guys, as I said before this version of the 114060 itself is least expensive compared to a noob v7 or a 1:1 but I wanted to start with an inexpensive daily and move on up. Let me know what you guys think!

Cool story but wait... They sent you a pepsi bezel for a sub? Is that even a thing or is it fantasy?

I see, thanks. Well, that's a bezel for the GMT master II (4 hands). But you have a submariner (3 hands). Its a different watch. So if you put a GMT bezel on a submariner, that would make it a GMTiner. Or Submaster II. Either way, not a model that would exist on rolex's catalogue.

Do correct me if I'm misunderstanding you somehow!

You are steering towards the right direction haha! So basically I originally ordered a rep submariner but they ended up sending that bezel on the sub from ioffer. Once I found out it was supposed to only be on the GMT master, I replaced it for a ceramic bezel through amazon (seen in photos)
