Could be, quality control isn't what it used to be.

with my ebay anchor (hope its real!)

that's my rape whistle on my keychain, but it's not functional... I blow and blow and blow and haven't been raped once. Maybe it doesn't work for guys?
Maybe I should go back to my wolf whistle?

Here's my Sub. That's the anchor behind it. The extreme closeup parallax caused the top to get cut off.

Gorgeous ancors (and Subs of course) friends!!
Nice to see so many together. I wish Rolex would continue with the tradition of shipping one of these anchors with every Sub or DSSD. Do you imagine an anchor worth the size of the DSSD??

By the way... a Tudor anchor?? My God... That´s an ANCHOR!!
Awesome!! Never saw one before!

Best cordial regards, Abel
