Okay, let’s talk about this Rolex Two-tone Blue Submariner, the “Bluesy”. I wanted one, but man, those things are expensive! So, I went looking for a, shall we say, “tribute” to the real deal. A high-imitation, you know?
First, I started digging around online, checking out all sorts of these replica watch sites. It’s a jungle out there, let me tell you. Lots of flashy pictures and big promises. I read through tons of descriptions, compared prices, and tried to weed out the really shady-looking operations.
Finding a Decent Replica
- Looked for sellers with detailed product information, not just some blurry photos.
- Checked for reviews, both on their sites and on watch forums.
- Tried to find ones that actually showed the weight and dimensions, you know? Like the real Submariners are around 1.57 inches across and weigh about 130 grams. The replica should be close to that.
After a good while, I found a few that seemed legit. They weren’t made of the same fancy materials as the genuine Rolex, obviously. They used cheaper stuff, but they looked pretty darn close. The style, the hands, the little numbers, even that two-tone blue and gold thing – they had it all down.
The Ordering Process
I picked one that looked promising and placed my order. Now, this part always makes me a little nervous. You’re sending money to some place far away, hoping they actually send you something, and that it’s not a total piece of junk. Anyway, I paid for it and waited.
The Arrival
A few weeks later, a package showed up. I ripped it open like a kid on Christmas morning. And you know what? It was pretty good! It had a nice weight to it, felt solid. The blue dial looked sharp, and the gold accents, while probably not real gold, still looked decent.
I put it on my wrist, and yeah, it definitely gave me that “Rolex Submariner” vibe. Now, I’m not trying to fool anyone into thinking it’s a real one. But for the price, it’s a fun watch to wear. It’s like, “Hey, I appreciate the classic style of the Bluesy, but I’m not about to drop a ton of cash on a watch.”
Final Thoughts
So, if you’re like me and want the look of a two-tone blue Submariner without taking out a second mortgage, a high-imitation might be the way to go. Just do your homework, find a reputable seller, and don’t expect it to be a genuine Rolex. It’s a copy, but a pretty decent one, in my experience. And hey, it’s your money, spend it how you want!
