McGilli's VRF Rolex Submariner 116610 MAX Review
McGILLI’S VRF ROLEX SUBMARINER 116610 MAX REVIEW
For my last review ever, I’ve decided to change the tone. Instead of hilariously trashy comedy that has you making pee-pee down your leg, prepare to be bored out of your mind. To death even. Bored out of your mind to death. That sounds painful already. However, with the rise of so called ‘reviewers’ on RWG lately I see I must adapt with the times.
Gone is all the funny shit. In is just facts. Boring. Facts. Fucts I will call them actually. Cuz who gives a fuct about facts? Apparently I do. n’. t. So, much like how when a popular music band changes their style to try and adapt to the newest trends or what’s popular with the masses of the day - I will adapt. I will not be as funny. I’ll be dry. Ooooh…. Dry sucks right? I mean, there is nothing worse than dry. Think about it. I’m sure everyone’s experienced a dry time. Whether it means you’re sober and wish you weren’t, or that hot date dried up when she saw you naked and the juices just stopped flowing. Hey, it happens. Not to me though or course. I like to keep things wet and flowing. See! I was just going to make a period joke! But I don’t want to. Cuz you want dry. See? Boring. Period.
So, really there’ nothing else to do but get on with it. [Yawns, puts up porn on the other monitor and starts working]
So, it’s established. This is going to be boring. Go comment on other boring reviews and thank them for making me change styles. You know, I was going to make a joke about KISS and The Elder, but as much as I hated it back when it was released, over the years I’ve come to really enjoy that album. So, maybe when I’m older, I’ll appreciate this review. You know, when I’m ‘old’ and ‘no fun’ and ‘my music sucks’. For now, I already hate this review. So boring. So boring it on.
CHAPTER I
WATCH ORDERED
Wait. Which watch? Who the Fuq ordered a Submariner? I sure didn’t. Some of you know this story. This watch was sent to me accidentally by a TD. I actually even PM’d a Mod because I was kind of freaked out about the whole thing. And, being the nice chap I am I wanted to make sure me and the TD were both protected. From STD’s. You can never be too cautious about The Gaids. I guess the Mods are like condoms then… But sexier I bet. Those are fucts I don’t bother with though.
Turned out the TD would not let me return it. This was interesting and I found out it’s because the return address used was apparently a dummy - so it couldn’t be traced back to them. See, I had told the TD I would just reject the watch and they would get it back - all done. Nope. TD said just open it and check it out. Then I had an idea. The idea was that I wanted to review the watch for free, then keep it for free, and have the TD place my reviews on the TD website, and every click on it I would get $1. Totally good deal for everybody. I thought.
But, in a freak accident, when I typed $1 per click it sent to the TD as $1 per cock and it just went south from there. Like Antarctica south. We’re still friends though. Apparently we can only be friends, it’s not them, it’s me.
PS. Was the fake return address really fake? The return address - was it a dummy? That’s what I was told and what I believed but it never made sense. It nagged at me like a wife telling you it's Sunday and the toilet does need to be cleaned. Would a TD would risk losing a watch if a mistake on the shipping address was made? So, after a month I got a hold of my old comrade in arms Jufuk Mawang. He’s from Scotland, obviously. You know how the Mods of the sites always dig up personal info on scammers? Yeah, I’m pretty sure they use my man Jufuk. I didn’t used to think Jufuk better than me, but it’s true. The guy can get to the bottom of anything. Even a 63 year old, no tooth truck stop hooker reading Stephen Hawking. And that’s deep.
Worst review ever.
WATCH RECEIVED
VRF SUBMARINER 116610 MAX
VRF MAX Upgraded Bezel.Dial.Lume.Packing
MOVEMENT: Asian 2836 25J Automatic 28800vph CASE DIAMETER: 40.5mmTHICKNESS: 13mm DIAL COLOR: Black Dial. super blue lume. serial number engraved at 6:00 of the rehaut. CASE MATERIAL: Solid Stainless Steel 316L BRACELET: Solid Stainless Steel 316L FRONT GLASS: Sapphire crystal BEZEL: Uni-directional Black Ceramic Bezel CLASP: New style flip-lock clasp. HACK MOVEMENT: Yes OTHER REMARKS: Waterproof IN THE FLESH… ERR METAL CHAPTER II IT’S ALL ABOUT THE SIZE One of the deciding factors in keeping this watch was the Blood Dial Rolex I have (RIP - Kind of). The Sub is a good size, and wearing that previous sub had left me with good vibes about the size and weight of it. However, after the fact - it’s a bit too small for my liking. I’ve really taken to the VRF SD43. That - is perfect for me. I do wear this sub on occasion (remember I got it over a month ago) but it’s in no way my go to watch. Here’s the Max from behind. SIZE COMPARISON SHOTS There are some shots with the SD43 in this review for comparison (The SD43 review is linked in my signature). I received the SD just days after the Sub. Or was it before? Well, either way I ended up wearing both at the same time for over a week. It was a good way to really get to know them both. One on each wrist, switching arms every day. Lame? Of course… But I mean - if I was rich enough to afford genuine watches of this caliber I think I’d wear one on each wrist for sure! So. Cool. Then I’d wear them to the gym. Do the bench press and fuqn groan really loud every time I pushed up on the bar, calling attention to them… Oh, and arm curls. Can you see how awesome that would look? A rolex on each arm for curls? Every curl just yell “Yeah muthrfuqr!!”. Women love that kind of talk. Nothing dry in the room when they hear that. CHAPTER III [Exciting material removed to make this review more boring] SOME BEAUTY SHOTS I mentioned this in another review - sorry for the lights in my ‘workshop’ - I changed bulbs recently and they are horrible with so much glare. But, they cost me $10 so no way I’m changing them for about 5 years… I’ve been thinking of ordering light bulbs from Aliexpress but I’m not ready to file a fire insurance claim in my house yet. Dial Pearl DATE WINDOW BEZEL - SUB & SD43 HANDS SEL JOINT CLASP CROWN CLASP STAMP REHAUT DETAIL REHAUT ALIGNMENT LASER ETCHED CROWN IT’S ALL ABOUT THE LITTLE DETAILS The VRF Max ultimately has better micro details than the VRF SD43. By micro details, I’m talking about things like the machining between the lugs etc. Nothing out in the open that I think anyone would really notice. And honestly, if someone did notice… something… and made a comment about how that hour marker is 0.3mm too thin or something I’d probably call 911, or if you’re in the UK it’s 0118-999-881-999-119-7253 and report someone high on cocaine stalking me because normal people don’t see those kinds of details. That's creepy detail level awareness. My daughter told me a joke recently: Your momma’s so old that when she lifted her breasts, pilgrims fell out. Now, is that a North American thing? I mean - did Europe have pilgrims? They don’t even have turkeys in Europe so how would they even know about pilgrims? Ha, weird shit never ceases to amaze. But, I did burst out laughing when I heard that joke. Actually, I led off with that for my online dating profile - but - as soon as I did (after a week of being on there) all the ladies stopped contacting me. I’ve since removed it. Maybe it’s not as funny to adults or something. But I mean, c'mon - pilgrims? Falling out?! How isn't that funny?!?! SEL STAMPS & BUILD BETWEEN THE LUGS CHAPTER IV Everything looks to be in order. Now - I do want to say something feels… off. I don’t know what it is. But comparing to all my other watches including Rolex watches: Pulling out the crown, and turning it feels… wonky? And at times, it’s almost like it doesn’t want to change the date. Like it’s just… touching… you can feel a tiny click as you turn it but the date doesn’t turn. I have to fiddle with it a bit then it’s fine. Ultimately - I am worried that it’s going to bust one day. Sad but true. My SD43 feels solid, and for that matter so does the cheap movement in my DSSD. Well, the DSSD doesn’t feel solid, but it’s never given me an issue and it easy to set all functions. Not sure why I put that info in this section, but hey it’s free information so no complaints. Ever. [Coat of arms and making fun of Urban Gentry removed to make this review more boring] CASE BACK - INSIDE MOVEMENT - No problems. Ticks like a kitten. Has a heartbeat. It lives. Fun movie. [Exciting story about Jufuk Mawang has been removed to make this review more boring] CHAPTER V MID LUME - SUB & SD43 - Looks Great [Exciting pictures of the watches on my cock in the dark removed to make this review more boring] LUME SHOT DARK - SUB & SD43 - Looks Great I think the lume is as good as it gets when you’re not using tritium gas tubes. If your eyes are adjusted to the dark, waking up in the middle of the night it’s sort of visible. But, tritium tubes is for serious nighttime people. Speaking of nighttime people - or, people who kind of live in the dark… Or under the darkness of evil... A long time ago I had this job. Not my current job (which is riding a bike and getting paid) - but an office job. The kind of job you’re supposed to be pleasant, even to those assholes that are rude to you. Let’s say after 20 years I made a grand exit from that line of work… The things those people made me do to them, it would put any 'customer service horror story' to shame I tell you. I was, and probably still can be, the master of that. But a short time before my exit, there was this employee that came up to our office, and she was just disgusting. Looks wise, and personality. We’d all knew about her because at some point we’d either had to speak to her on the phone, or listen about other people who had. And every single story was horrible. But she came into the office one day. So, I’d recently watched Lord Of The Rings, this was around that time. And the whole time I’m thinking she looks like one of the huge, badass orc hybrids. Nasty like. Like, not only did I think she had a giant orc cock, but I bet her nipples were as big as cocks. Ugh. Tension, all through the office. No one was doing any work, because we were all watching the poor sap who had to help her. It was so quiet in there. You could hear people sweating. Then, she finally leaves. It was like a huge weight lifted. You could feel all the tension lift up out of the room, everyone was breathing again… I turned around to the guys there and I kind of gave a sympathetic looks about her and said “Hey, it must be tough growing up on the streets of Mordor” and the place lit up like a geek convention you’ve only ever dreamed of. That’s when I knew I should make fun of people behind their backs cuz I was pretty good at it. But never to their face. Because orc cock. CHAPTER VI THE CASE & CROWN & CLICKITY CLICK Crown has great detail, cutting and depth. The teeth grab your finger and thumb easily when you turn the crown. CASE POLISH No complaints here, it's all polished up shiny like. Edges done nicely. CROWN CUT I've mentioned this before, but really nice. HOW THE CROWN FEELS WHEN SETTING TIME/DATE Oh shit… This is where I was supposed to put that info about the crown feeling iffy. See, for anyone curious about how I made that mistake - here is my master class in creating watch reviews: 1. I order a watch. 2. Before the watch even arrives, I sit down at the computer and I make all my chapters for the review. On occasion, I copy and paste from a previous review, but not always. 3. Still no watch, so what I do is I then populate the review with descriptions of every photo I want to take of the watch - listed in the correct section. Usually. 4. No watch yet. I start thinking about funny stories, anecdotes, or just plain out lies I can tell in my review. I always do this while riding my bike. Wanna see me on my bike? 5. Watch arrives. 6&7. These change at times. Sometimes I start taking photos immediately. Other times, I wear the watch for a while before taking any photos. 8. Put it all together, adding in any more stupid shit that I think might entertain, or intentionally annoy people. My reviews are an acquired taste. Like that Japanese food bukake. 9. Bask in the glory that is usually 7 to 8 replies saying I did a good job. 10. Love life while ordering another watch. So you see - it can get complicated. I’m looking at all this review for days or even weeks on my computer in a notepad program - and I can’t actually see the photos I’ve posted the links to in it and have to hope they are correct. So, that’s how it’s done but I love it. CHAPTER VII ARE THESE WATCHES WORTH THE MONEY? That is always a tough statement to make. I mean - is the price of fuel for your vehicle really worth that much, considering it cost much less years ago? Is a house that sells now for $1.5m where I live, that just ten years ago was $500,000 worth the extra money it takes to own it? What is value? It’s up to each and every one of us to decide that for ourselves, which is why I don’t listen people who say “more money than brains”. We all have different tolerances we will accept when it comes to value and cost. These watches however, if you can put aside the insides, even though they are tested and trusted, mostly, are excellent replicas and I think they’re a fabulous addition to any collection. Especially mine. They will be to yours to, if you decide to buy one. Or if one gets sent to you accidentally. You might even get $1 per cock. FAMILY SHOT WHAT ABOUT THE…. Extra photo's I didn't use?!?!? Glad you want to see them! Enjoy! And on that note, I bid you all adieu. Thanks for reading and don’t forget to blame all those new ‘reviewers’ on RWG for turning this review into the boring festival of laziness it was. I cut out lots of material I’d created over the past month in an effort to make this as dull and dry as I possibly could. Maybe next time I’ll try doing something different… And original… Or…. Maybe I just did?
