So, I finally got my hands on that two-tone black Submariner I’ve been eyeing. It’s a pretty good replica, and I was pumped to finally have it on my wrist. Here’s how it all went down.
First off, I spent hours digging online. I wanted to get this right, you know? After a lot of searching, I finally placed an order. I was a little nervous, but what can you do? I paid for it. It’s important to do your research before you dive in. And yeah, waiting for it to arrive was a killer.
Unboxing
When the package finally showed up, I ripped that thing open like a kid on Christmas morning. And there it was, looking pretty shiny. I immediately checked the model and serial numbers, just like I read about online. They were all there, neatly engraved, just like the real deal.
- Checked for the weight – felt substantial, not flimsy.
- Looked at the detailing – the crown logo, the markers, everything looked crisp.
- Wound it up and set the time – the movement felt smooth.
I’ve been wearing it for a few days now, and honestly, it’s been great. It keeps time well, looks good, and feels comfortable on my wrist. I even compared it to some pictures of the original, and man, it’s a close match. I know the real ones are super expensive, and frankly this looks pretty cool. I also learned that the blue dial two tone sub is currently more expensive than the black one.
Overall, I’m pretty stoked about this watch. It’s not the original, but for the price and the look, I’m happy with it. If you’re thinking about getting one, just do your homework first. Find out how much the original is going for, so you can have an idea. Make sure you know what to look for in terms of details and quality. You have to be careful out there! It’s a good idea to understand what serial numbers mean and all that.
