madcatlancelot 1 Posted April 4, 2017 Hey guys, I just wanted to share the photos of the new ceramic sea-dweller which I bought a month ago. There are lots of thread about the ceramic sub but very few about the SD. This watch is beautiful, I'll let the photos speak for themselves. So far, the SA3135 that this watch has is working great, the winding is smooth and the timekeeping is good. I've seen other dealers sell this with A2836 movement, if you prefer a proven movement compared to the SA3135. That's it for now, I hope you liked the photos.

Yeah, the crystal is higher on sea-dwellers than the sub, it just looks exaggerated on close-up shots but it's just nice in the wrist. But maybe, the rep crystal is mm taller than the gen, based on internet photos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

madcatlancelot 1 Posted April 5, 2017 Very nice. Bezel insert and pearl look almost gen. I remember the V1/V2 ceramic sub Yeah, the bezel and pearl looks great, the bezel click is amazingly smooth as well. Oh I used to have one of those V1 ceramic sub from few years ago, the pearl has improved a lot since then. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greg_r 81 Posted April 5, 2017 Nice one madcat. I'm not a big fan of Rolex divers, but a mate picked up one of these recently and it really looks/feels like quality. Enjoy it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markeym3 2 Posted April 5, 2017 I have the same watch, never really got on with subs just felt too small and the deepsea felt top heavy but this sea dweller feels good , very nice to wear, good pics.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bowtiefanatc 16 Posted April 7, 2017 Super nice! I think that would make a nice companion for my TC 16610 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lagger 160 Posted April 7, 2017 I have this to, it outshines the v7 in my opinion, the bezel colour and click is miles better, it's'smoother' all over............I had the dial made Matt by Kenny as well like gen.......probably my closest rep after my black bay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ilovepepsi 0 Posted April 11, 2017 Is the functionality the same to set the time as a gen or is it backwards? thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madcatlancelot 1 Posted April 12, 2017 Is the functionality the same to set the time as a gen or is it backwards? thanks! Setting the time is same as per gen, all my other watches are ETA based and this is backwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mammut0202 0 Posted April 12, 2017 Hi @madcatlancelot, I'm buying the same watch from Watchoutlet... I'm in the QC photos phase... in your opinion, how close to gen is it? Other question, did you do any mod in the bezel insert? look well with a touch of silver... Regards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other question, did you do any mod in the bezel insert? look well with a touch of silver... Regards hi Mammut0202, I'm not familiar with Watchoutlet, I didn't see them in the Trusted dealers list, but anyway IMO this watch is very close to the gen "except" for the dial. The older release of the gen 116600 has a visible matte dial but the recent ones look a bit glossy in some angles. Thanks for the comments, no modifications done on this one. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
