TRANSPORTER 1 Posted November 12, 2016 Guys, quick question, I, m after a good rep or closest so to speak of a submariner 5512, same model as the king of cool Steve Mcqueen wore. Looking on silix sight (my prefered seller) the closest ive found is in the budget collection and it's rol251, but it hasn't got a riveted bracelet. Anyone point me in the right direction please, cheers guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatarms 7,777 Posted November 13, 2016 You've been here for almost 4 years... Either ask silix if she can source one or hit up Marvellous Replica's cartel specials and ask for a rivet bracelet instead. Check M's section for the specials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NCRich 13,747 Posted November 14, 2016 Buy something close, then send it to RolexAddict for fettling Terrible advice. You have enough posts to know better. Nothing in the pictures at Silix is what you want. You want a JK factory (JKF) sub sometimes called a cartel. Closest thing you can find and the best one to mod you can get. Ask Michelle if she can get them and ask her the price. Marvellous replica has these on sale for $100 in 21j, Sead at Supermirrors is $129, and others are higher. Add roughly $75 to their prices for ETA Believe me, I know. I have them all. This is a 5513 but the 12s are the same just 4 lines of text. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TRANSPORTER 1 Posted November 18, 2016 Rich huge thanks mate, sorry I haven't replied sooner been away with work, I'll have a look on marvelous replica now, 21j is fine for me especially as the gen wasn't a 288000bph movement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cleebeauregard 2 Posted November 18, 2016 My 5512 says "Hi!"-- This started life as a "cartel" case with ETA-- Pratt over on RWI did the mods and "vintagizing"-- is that a word?, lol. Sounds dirty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TRANSPORTER 1 Posted November 19, 2016 Lovely piece mate, shame marvelous reps don't accept paypal, might be the deal breaker for me getting one of these beauty's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
porschespeedster 19 Posted November 20, 2016 HAH. Mate, PP is a very no-go word around rep-land. Find a good TD and just give them a standard credit card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you have a dealer you have a relationship with that takes paypal you can get this. The price will vary but you can get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
