Latest JF Factory Basel 2016 Yachtmaster Grey Dial Blue Hands! Mini review but PIC heavy.

Recommended Posts

Hey Blue

I purchased my Noob V7 modded Hulk a year ago. My Christmas gift to me! added ETA 2836, adjusted window, Etc, Etc, Etc. Had tested to 50m. Purchased it a year ago. Within a week I took the watch over to my favorite Gen Rolex store. I laid it down on the velvet case and the sales lady laid down a gen Hulk. We stared at them for a few minutes and she picked up my modded RolSub and I picked up her Gen. She put the mod down and I put the Gen back on the velvet. Then we asked a more experienced salesmen over. No one could tell the difference....that is with out opening up the watch. Look, I have a Gen 16613 older Black face, circa 1999. My wife gave it to me for my 50th birthday. It cost her, or should I say me, LOL, $5K on Sanibel Island at Congress Jewelers. Great store. I am not trying to be pretentious in purchasing a modded or a Franken or a fake. I travel a lot. South and Central America mostly. Be cautious of what you wear on your fingers and wrists down there. I would rather lose a $600 watch than a $5000 watch. And no one knows the difference if you buy quality. Do your research. BK and TC are great choices. Trusty Time has a 116613 TT wrapped gold, which covers the sides of the mid links on the bracelet. They start w/a Noob V7 cost is $688, not bad for a very good looking watch. I know were told to stay away from 116613 TT watches because of the gold plating process and it getting scratches. But what the heck, I'm pulling the trigger on a Blue faced TT 116613 this coming Christmas....Yeah! Better than spending @10K for a new gen.

Fuck you Gazz, this is a stellar photo and makes me want one... Same reason I bought the damned SARB035, and Prometheus Piranha... Your damned photos!

 

You've cost me almost $1000 already!

Considering that the noob v7 is on the market from one month, and 1 year ago the top was v5, your story sound strange...

Wow small world, my wife bought my twotone blue dial Rolex submariner  at Congress jewelers, Sanibel inland also. 2002, I think it was $7200 then. It’s crazy how much they have gone up in price. 

I know this is old thread but just wanted to comment and say hello.
