plankton 1 Posted January 8, 2014 Sea-Dweller hits home for me in these pics. My eye goes to it first. Interesting, I have a TC Sub on the way and don't have a damn SD................. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flave 0 Posted January 8, 2014 Now that's a beadspread! I should pay more attention to spell check next time. The poll refers to the shwanky floral bedspread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nygiants 0 Posted January 8, 2014 I've had the seadweller and really didn't like it. I think the lines on the sub-c are much better. Not to beat a dead horse but, the sub-c does come w/o a date. Then it's def. sub-c all the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
P4GTR 0 Posted January 8, 2014 BP sub ceramics, part for part are very accurate. The sum of the parts together as a timepiece leave a lot to be desired. The overall fit and finish isn't quite up to par, even though the SEL fitment is much better than the latest noob. The 16600 was a watch I don't think anyone saw coming. Whether intentional or not, they pretty much nailed it. With TC having produced some 16600 dials and upgrading some other parts, the watch is a super rep to the nth degree. No contest.

Kleen™ 45 Posted January 8, 2014 EVERYTHING just seems to be so damn' oversized/grown on the sub: The crown, the crownguards, the horns, the hour markers, the shiny ceramic bezel etc...: to me the sub is nothing but a contemporary 'more-moore-moooore'-watch whereas the SD is a beautifulexample of a less-is-more design. Just my 0,02... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

solkryssare 109 Posted January 8, 2014 Has to be the SD of course. Perfection in style, performance and form. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

live1 0 Posted January 8, 2014 Sea dweller of course; but, who is the maker for this one? where did you buy it ?bp make this sd .they are both bp factory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flave 0 Posted January 8, 2014 Yes, I got both from Josh at PC. He sources his reps from BP factory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kcore 0 Posted January 8, 2014 Strictly classic for me so the SD gets my vote. Don't like the ceramic, don't like the maxi- dial & thicker hands on sub-c. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree that the 16600 is a fine specimen. Right out of the box it is very accurate to gen. I have to say that I prefer the bracelet and clasp on the Sub-C. I don't think they are interchangeable, but if they were I would swap them out in a heartbeat! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brimc123 0 Posted January 9, 2014 SD 100% - the sub looks over-grown, I personally have always preferred the SD strap and clasp to the subs but just my opinion, as a newbie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
