Okay, so, let me tell you about this little project I got myself into. It’s about making a high imitation Rolex Two-tone Black Submariner, the “original order” kind. You know, the ones that look so real, it’s kinda scary.
Getting Started
First off, I dug around for info. Found out that these fancy Rolex watches are a big deal. Two-tone means it’s got gold and silver colors. And a real one weighs around 130 grams, but not a lot of it is actual gold. Just some parts, like the middle links and that crown thingy.
Finding the Goods
Now, I ain’t made of money, so a real Rolex was out of the question. That’s where these high imitation ones come in. I started hunting for the best parts I could find. It wasn’t easy, let me tell you. Lots of duds out there. But I kept at it, comparing this and that, making sure the colors matched just right.
Putting it all Together
Once I had all the pieces, it was time to assemble this bad boy. This was the tricky part. Needed steady hands and a good eye. I followed some guides I found online, mostly pictures and videos, you know, showing how everything fits together. It took some time, and a few mess-ups, but I managed to put it all together.
Checking it Out
- Weight: Feels pretty close to the real deal. Not exact, but close enough.
- Look: Man, it looks good. The gold and silver shine just right. The black dial is spot on.
- Movement: This is where it gets a little tricky. The second hand doesn’t move exactly like a real Rolex. It’s close, but not perfect. But hey, for a high imitation, it’s pretty darn good.
The Final Result
So, after all that work, I ended up with a high imitation Rolex Two-tone Black Submariner that looks almost like the real thing. It’s not perfect, of course, but for the price, it’s amazing. I wear it around, and people are always asking me about it. They can’t believe it’s not a real one. It’s a fun little project, and I’m pretty proud of how it turned out. If you’re into watches and don’t want to spend a fortune, this is definitely something to check out. Just be prepared to put in some work!
