FredBouchard 0 Posted June 26, 2013 there are many posts about who makes the best subs, and while they definitely deserve their notoriety, I'm more interested in who makes the best 5004. for me there's no better watch than the BP and i'd very much like to pick up a nice one with super lume, 28,000 vph, 1:1 markings/dial, and possibly functional PR -fred -PS: I've been through all the TDs -PPS: does anyone make the Muhammad Ali edition?

Wriggles 12 Posted June 26, 2013 Have you emailed the TD's or just checked the websites of those that have them?? Websites are not always up to date depending on TD, and TD's like Mary & Rochest at WatchInternational have a great rep for getting you the rep you want just by giving them a picture and details of what you're after. Don't know a huge amount about the BP except I will get one at some point, what I do know is that models with the functional PR have an incorrect date wheel (sunken) whereas the better date wheel is on the one with the faux PR (ie non functional) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You won't be wasting their time, all you're doing is giving them a description of what you are after and they'll let you know if they can get it or not. It's part of being a dealer. Guyute has seconded what I said, Mary & Rochest at WI are probably the best bet, they have a reputation for finding watches no-one else seems to get. All you do is email them a description of what you want and with a picture if you have one, they'll tell you if it can be sourced and how much Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
