Fifty Fathoms vs Submariner
« on: February 23, 2016, 07:02:52 AM »
U asked..u shall receive. Black dials are a pain btw.

Oddly..kinda hard to compare. The FF is a blingy piece..big..bold...its got everything. The sword hands..the all night lume...layered dial with a hard to capture sunburst dial..that crazy domed crystal and sapphire bezel.
Can't wait to try out different strap combos on it.

The FFB we know and grew to love...is very modern and shall I say...contemporary...the FFB's ceramic bezel being flat...looks fantastic under different lighting..

after doing this..I'm more inclined to think the Bathyscaphe is a better comparison to the Sub..and perhaps the 116600 to the FF.

Thanks for the eye-candy, Doc. They're a sight for sore eyes. Ooh la la... With so many beauties on-hand, it'd be interesting to know which piece would bag more wrist time henceforth.

Oh God, those are some nice watches. U cannot keep poison like that. Luckily I already build up some immunity.
