My new quartz Submariner
Check it out --keeps great time. Very uncomfortable on the wrist , however. Guess I will just leave it on the wall.

Pretty cool that one. The ADs here get the original one from Rolex. Unfotunately I don't have a picture. The clock is very nice with a large fluted bezel, wooden outer case and large wide stick indices. No centre sweep....just the two hands. Very large, very stunning and NOT for sale!!

Looks like a fake to me. I believe the sub should have a "cyclops" over the date, but I'm not sure....
Hang on there's no date...Must be a fake. |

Got it on eBay, and for what they are, they don't go all that cheap $300-$500 --some may have been cheaper. They are billed as dealer clocks and I have seen Daytona versions as well. I guess you could say they are grey market clocks. Keeps great time--but you would expect it to--runs on a $1 battery instead of a $3,000 movement.

Miner, don't you know an ND LV when you see one? It's the genuine article. But it's missing the Nato strap.
