Anyone have a tutorial for greasing the crown seal?

Please comment, especially on the CGs. I have never learned to see the difference...

Hey! I'm new around here and this thread made me pull the trigger on my 1st rep, I didn't even had to ask who has the best sub!

Just a little concerned about the "new breed 2813 25j". There doesn't seem to be much info about it. Should it be at least as reliable as 21j? I've read a post in another thread about some watches who had the same movement and were presenting problems, though that could be just a particular case. Anyways, I hope it arrives soon.

Just an observation but the 20 and 30 numbers on the outta bezel look larger (bolder) font that the 10, 40 and 50. Is this by design?!

there is no "2813 25j", this is the so-called Asian 4813 movement which is a 21 j movement but high-beat (like ETA and gen Rolex). this movement is said to be unreliable but I have no personal experience with it. the movement of a watch is its heart, I cannot understand how you can try to save money here. therefore I highly recommend to get (Asian) ETA movement. many dealers (Sead+Sora f.e.) offer them for a reasonable price (about 220 USD)

Actually, the movement people are talking about isn't a 4813. It is a new (or new to us, at least) 25j movement that seems to take a lot of design cues from the eta clones. I don't know anything about its reliability, but it looks sturdier than the dg movements.

@gio

The case feels well made, I have a TC sub bracelet on mine at the moment whilst waiting for the SD bracelet.


Whilst wearing it I would say it feels very close to a TC sub in terms of quality.
