25 Year Old Submariner Rep

Recommended Posts

sfa437

The advances in replica watch production are INSANE!

 

This Rolex Sub was bought circa 1985-86 on Canal St in NYC. At the time it was the top-of-the-line with an automatic where 99.9% of the other reps were quartz powered.

 

That being said- I can even begin to start describing the "tells" on this one. Everything is wrong from the stainless steel plated case to the non-magnifying cyclops. Rather than point everything out here are some photos for you guys to have fun with :thumbsup:

Here it is opposite the Rolex Super Seadweller:

So the next time you're complaining about a wokky rehaut or incorrect date font- refer back here to see how bad things used to be!

Haha, this is amazing, it's a piece of history ;)

 

In the pawn industry we see some of these "classics", my manager usually wears them for a day or two as a joke. Ironically, most people who buy/pawn watches still think that is normal rep quality, they get taken with subs and panerais a lot :x
