Some serious talent there. I wonder when we will see the mug on Antiques roadshow!
Whilst I have not bought an MWC, I have yet to hear a positive word for them. I have a small collection of divers watches and at the end of the day you do get what you pay for an old adage but true,...
I have a quartz CWC diver in my rather modest [divers] collection, which I bought about six years ago, still working on the original battery. This was my daily beater for the last month whilst my sub...
Not genuine, no Rolex explorers I or II were made with quartz movements. Only the 'Rolex Datejust Oysterquartz' further information is available on the following website http://www.oysterquartz.net/...
I have the older Submariner [model 14060M] I do not personally like the newer versions, having said that Rolex will probably sell all that they can make. Incidentally whilst my sub is sufficiently...
I have quite a few 'NATO' straps, whilst one's purchased from Eddie and others are very comfortable, the original that I have with my CWC and an Admiralty from Rolex are to the original MoD spec,...
Unfortunately many of us do the same. Years ago [when a Rolex Sub cost around £250] I bought a Longines Greenlander from a military surplus shop, for a few quid, some while later I gave it to a...
The 18Q is the watch that goes with me to the [swimming] pool every week.
I find that the bezel superior to the CWC bezel, as for the Sub, I have no wish to smash it poolside!! would cost too much...
Totally correct..........That he is full of BS.
I have a Rolex Submariner [no date] which has been worn in the water, it's natural habitat! with shorts, lounge suit, dinner suit. It has never felt out of place, I would deem it to be suitable for...
Mmmmmm....Looks more like a clock to me
I have only two at present, both worn, the Precista is my swimming watch.
Although many years ago, probably in the early '70's I bought an ex WD Longines I believe to be a 'Greenlander" cost me...
Rolex used to say it took a year apparently in man hours, probably before they used robotic systems
:bounce: I have always wondered why the Exp II was named the "McQueen" when he was usually seen wearing the Rolex Submariner, Ho Hum
As an owner of a ND sub which I consider harks back to the original subs, I have to agree.
Possibly the watch is as authentic as the commission
I'll drink to that. Pleased to see Time factors and the forum back
Maybe a diver's model!!!!
Dear Eddie
Just to let you know that the order has just arrived, extremely well packaged
The watch is all that I expected, my first 'Precista' watch, possibly not my last!
Regards
And...

The badge represents Shayetet 13 which are the Israeli naval commandos an elite special forces unit, similar to the SBS and the US Navy Seals. :)

I have owned the CWC quartz, for about two years now, very good watch, whilst I do not dive I swim regularly and I find the watch to be clear in the water, it is also a good...
As the CWC was, and AFAIK still manufactured to the MoD spec Def Stan 66-4 pt1. This specified brazed strap bars, it would seem to me unlikely for them to change, for a few models.
I have one of...
