Skrimps 3 Posted June 15, 2016 So I really wanted to buy a gen Rolex Sub 5512 from 1978 but the wife shot that one down real quick. This made me start looking around at vintage watches and trying to find the best place to get one at. Have seen some over at Perfect Clones that look good and have also seen what RolexAddict can do. Just wanted to know what some of you guys think are great vintage ones as well as a thread to share some pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiruku 25 Posted June 15, 2016 (edited) There are plenty of very talented individuals on here that will take your money and convert it into a nice little vintage project for you. If I had to choose, my blueberry gets the most wrist time. Left to right; MBW & InGod / RA / JDOG / Kenny Edited June 15, 2016 by Chiruku Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCRich 13,798 Posted June 15, 2016 There is already a long, long thread in the vintage section. But nothing beats this to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kleen™ 45 Posted June 15, 2016 5517...and then a 6239 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chiruku 25 Posted June 15, 2016 Actually, Machs RA 6263 is on M2M now - go grab that. Instant vintage awesomeness with no wait. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skrimps 3 Posted June 15, 2016 Yeah, saw his over on the M2M but have just never been a fan of the Daytona for some reason. Been eyeing some vintage Explorer type as well. Love, LOVE LOVE your Space Dweller. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
porschespeedster 19 Posted June 15, 2016 man, you answered your own question...you don't like Daytonas, and almost bought a 5512. Buy a cartel 5512 and do a lil modding, or send it to RA etc = done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kleen™ 45 Posted June 15, 2016 Sword hands > Mercedes hands - thus - 5517 > 5512 Ya'll welcum'... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vinnychase1 44 Posted June 23, 2016 This one: Wow very nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daywatch 4 Posted June 23, 2016 Cartel 5512 or 5513 and send it over to RA; vintage 1680 JKF edition (the one that Intime has) or wait for something to come up on m2m (it might be gone once You want to grab it). Once vintage, always vintage so it doesn´t really matter where You start:) Plus, personally I´m happy with all of them from the cheapest to the most expensive.

Andylaw1919 386 Posted June 23, 2016 I would choose the most expensive one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElvisFreak 73 Posted June 23, 2016 There is already a long, long thread in the vintage section. But nothing beats this to me. been searching on google for that liquid look of this dial and cant find any gen with this dial. could you post one here or PM it to me? Thanks NC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SliceMaster 281 Posted June 23, 2016 I got these 2 to choose from....first a slightly modded GMT Vintage that RA changed the crystal to a gen flat one (I hated the doomed one) and also installed a gen bezel insert And then I have a vintage Seadweller bought in a M2M deal some year ago and with the rubberstrap on it´s a beauty IMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rolex321 0 Posted June 23, 2016 Got to be one of these or a Paul Newman Daytona. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cazwrx187 0 Posted July 23, 2016 For me it has got to be the 1680 Red. Such a classic. This is my Cartel V2 with WSO aged insert, Cartel Pearl, and Bulang and Sons strap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sogeha 6 Posted July 23, 2016 This one: What is the number model, and which td ? I search for a good vintage model ! My guess is 6205 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haltec 0 Posted July 26, 2016 That's Mitchelle (Silix TD) 6538 Big Crown. 21j But 3-6-9 dial is more closer to 6200 line, altough 6200 line Big Crowns are pretty rare. Some more photos; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vannav 0 Posted July 29, 2016 Has to be the mil sub---why are they so expensive! Either that or the NCG subs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
