Just spotted this as one of Amazon's deals of the day:

Seems like a bit of a steal if you don't want to shell out for a Sub! smile

Hm. Nice spot. Wonder what other quartz Sub-a-likes can be found for under £50. (By Sub-a-likes, I mean look exactly the same with matching hands, bracelet, etc rather than Seiko SKX models or Ltd's own plastic versions.)

Looked at the watch web site, couldnt find that watch, but they did have one with gold bits, like the gold rolex, obviously not gold, RRP was £99 reduced to £66.22 based on that I think the one on Amazon is a tad misleading saying it was £115, either way, good looking watch for the price.

Needed a new daily beater. At that price figured I couldn't lose really :-)

Sorry! rotate

If its any consolation - at least you know the price will go up at midnight tonight as it's just a 'deal of the week' type offer! hehe

I've got one of those. It's soki and probably worth about that price; that said, it still works!

Lets face it, how many of us buy Rolex Sub Mariners or Sea Dwellers to actually use them underwater. So yes good inexpensive buy, and no doubt keeps better time as well than a Rolex

What I didn't realise is that they're a take on a popular watch but 'with a twist'.

Mine arrived today and has a sparkly face. I'm not sure whether I hate it or not, but I'd much prefer it without.

Sounds interesting, although maybe a bit loud frown

If you get a sec, could you post a pic or two? I have one on it's way to me.........

Sure. It should be attached, though I'm not sure the sparkle in the face shows too well.
