Would like to know more about this watch.

The correct code and price for this watch, estimated price for new/used.

Another watch from Hublot, forbidden.

That submariner is the Rolex 116618LN. 18 carat yellow gold. We should be looking at prices around the region of 1xx,xxx ringgit. It comes with a bracelet made of gold as well. This one has been changed to a rubber b strap.

Don't know about the Hublot though. Maybe some other sifu can chime in.


Cheers/Patrick

Oh... i thought the rolex was 116613LN... i assume this is a cheaper version... any price indicator?

For the Hublot the discounted price is RM40k+

The sub half gold is a ref 116613. Price not too sure since the new price revision.

Definitely Sub. If possible I would go white gold or solid gold sub or full SS, not a fan of two tone.

Hublot looks cool but bad value.

Both are around the same price if Hublot is Rm40k. Go with the one that you like the most. You have to make the decision as you will be wearing it.

Both are just as loud and pretty. Can't go wrong with any of the two you shortlisted.
