As an ex pawn shop worker and multiple gen watch including several Rolex owner, I can say 170-200 bucks with WBK can fool 99.9% of people. I wore a gen sub for 10 years and the majority of people who ever asked about my watch thought it was fake. Numerous times I had people/friends ask to hold it and check it out, then they would have their little reasons why they thought it was probably fake. If I were you I'd find something you like and roll with it. WBK has a great ceramic GMT at the 170 price point IMO (and many others opinion). Is it perfect? Nope. Will it compare perfectly with gen side to side? No. On your wrist at a normal range from the normal persons eyes could someone easily call it fake? NO. Does it cost a kidney and a leg? NO.
I've bought 2 pieces from WKB and at his price point you won't find much better. If you want to toss out 2 to 3 times as much start doing your homework or scouting m2m sales.

I'm not looking to toss out any more than that. I am considering http://www.intime.co/rollie/1162-classic-sea-dweller-ss-black-asian-2824-2.html , however I wonder how water resistant this is or what the quality of this watch is. I wanted to see some reviews on it. Also the shipping on top of it is at least $25 so it adds up to at least $263 which is more than I planned on spending but I may consider it. I am also checking out WBK's pieces. Any thoughts?

WBK will water proof the watch for you at a very reasonable additional price.

I also wonder how the lume is on this piece.
BP-Seadweller, great watch, specially after You´ve tried others:) Ask the TD specifically for the BP-version of the classic Seadweller by e-mail.

If you want the Classic Sea Dweller, you must get the BP Factory version. I am not sure if the watch you linked from InTime is the BP version. SInce all this is new for you, and you have a limited budget and want to get the best bang for your buck, you need to read the Rolex Section and it will help you better understand that there are many factory versions of the same watch, but they are not the same. Some factory versions are better than other factory versions.
For the Sea Dweller, the BP Classic SD is known to be excellent.
For a Ceramic Submariner, the BP Factory version is NOT as good as the NOOB Factory version.
If you fancy the Explorer II then the NOOB Factory version is the one you want.
WBK has"other factory versions" compared to the larger Trusted Dealers like PureTime, InTime, Toro.
Narikaa and Nembo have their own factory versions that are less expensive.
It is really important to do your research, look at pictures, and decide what best fits your needs based on the budget.
Best of luck. Let us know what you choose and post some pics!!

1st link is to a thread started Nov 9 2011, way too outdated...versions have since been released

2nd link make sure with TD that it's a BP Sea-Dweller.
link about BP Sea-Dweller: https://forum.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php/141721-BP-Seadweller-Best-SD-available-Period

3rd not sure which maker BP? DSSD experts, is this v6.1 good for the price?


Noob V2 is the latest and best DSSD but around $400, here's a link with a review: https://forum.replica-watch.info/vb...-Rolex-DSSD-ownership-thoughts?highlight=dssd

link 1 and 3 are DeepSea Sea-Dwellers 44mm (ceramic bezel insert)
link 2 is a Sea-Dweller 40mm (classic last generation aluminum bezel insert)

Which do you like better the larger 44mm DeepSea Sea-Dweller or classic 40mm Sea-Dweller and if the more accurate rep is of more importance.

I'd suggest the classic Sea-Dweller since you've already stretched your budget from $150 to $270 delivered.

If you're set on the DSSD wait for input about that V6.1 version from DSSD experts, which I am not.
