rotgut 0 Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) Hey everyone, been lurking for a while and finally ready to order my first rep watch! I wanna start cheap and just looking for a beautiful watch for special occations. I have narrowed it down to 3 watches, 2 of them being Sea Dweller and last being Deepsea model. I have big issues seeing the difference between the 2 Sea Dweller watches, other than Sky-F creator, and my question is this: Is the non Sky-F watch worth the extra money, and how is the quality on the Sky-F Deepsea? SEA DWELLER 126600 https://www.pf-828.com/0-0-0-rlsd00181-2017-43mm-sea-dweller-4000-126600-ss-ss-black-a-2813.html SEA DWELLER 126600 SKY-F https://www.pf-828.com/0-0-0-rlsd00188-2017-sky-f-43mm-sea-dweller-4000-126600-ss-ss-black-a-2813.html DEEPSEA 116660 SKY-F https://www.pf-828.com/0-0-0-rlsd00186-sky-f-44mm-deepsea-116660-ss-ru-black-a-2813-special-offer.html I like the Deepsea best due to its size, but am in doubt if the Sea Dweller is beter quality (the not Sky-F one) Hope you can help a newbie out Edited May 16, 2018 by rotgut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thommo82 1,397 Posted May 16, 2018 The date font alone is worth the extra money IMO. I have a SKY factory Submariner, it was my first rep and I was overjoyed with it. Since then I have purchased two more Submariners, (more expensive) and the subtle differences that make them more gen like really add to the beauty of the watch. Date font on a watch with a cyclops is important. The date numbers on the SKY look like a kids toy. Other watch looks much nicer, even has platinum bezel markers, also a small but very noticeable difference for the better. Movements in these watches are the same, price isn’t that much different, get the better one and love your watch even more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have also looked at then following, would this be similar to the other, non SkyF?

Thommo82 1,397 Posted May 16, 2018 Shipping will be pretty similar I’d say. See if they offer a discount if you pay with Western Union. Some do, some don’t. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IT looks like 8% WU discount. Never used WU so ill see if the fee is worth it.

WU is some jungle, but looks like the deals gone through Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
