not surprised at all. most watch shop assistants or even sales manager have no or very little knowledge about watches they are selling.

interesting.... now i can see why you werent taken seriously with your thread.

a Sub C is hardly a big man watch and you dont really need an unlimited fund to be able to buy it.

so, cough it up - who are you really.......

Yeah I'm packing mad coin mate, I'm very surprised im not being taken 100% seriously on this subject, maybe my quick photos taken on the phone don't accurately portray the extremely poor quality workmanship that's gone into this bnib watch. WRISTS!

Can we get some PICS of the 'mad coins' along side your watch? brand new and in its box?

Well you do have a Rolex warranty for 2 years from the date of purchase so that should take care of it.

That's about all that can be said......except good luck

If you go to the right AD or authorised Rolex repairer they will replace the hands

All sorted at GS, got a replacement watch, fitted much better, no problems at all, couldn't be happier. What next? Breitling or another ROLEX? This new submariner is an absolute dream watch, no real need to own another watch in my opinion.

Comfort 10/10
Quality 10/10
Appearance 10/10

It's total perfection. Love it!

Glad to hear the good news.
If the Sub C is so perfect, why were you still looking at another watch? Maybe it isn't "that" perfect afterall.

Look I was drinking Innis & Gunn the other night, I'm financially good and naturally a greedy type of guy hence my looking for another fine watch, sorry if I've offended anyone with my boasts of greatness.

I'll keep you all updated what ROLEX have got to say about the original watch condition.
