Looks good! Is that bezel ceramic?

Yep. Bought the ceramic bezel insert from DLW.

I see, that's cool!

Do post the modded picture here when it's done.

Will do

tempted to insert the tony stark gif but I resist just this once.

the FF & rolex sub, while divers, are quite different creatures:

- the FF msrp is almost twice more of the sub, case is all shiny & polished, comes in sailcloth strap with deployant clasp, bezel is fully lumed and encased in sapphire glass, has domed crystal with AR coating, is way curvier and sexier (esp the rose gold edition) imho.

- the sub comes in a bracelet with a superior clasp with micro adjustment, ceramic bezel, +/-2 seconds accuracy a day, 5 year warranty, 10 yr service interval, has flat crystal with nor AR coating, but design is widely copied.

BUT, because of herd mentality, the rolex has better value retention.

if you can afford both, do what tony stark does.

as a rule, if you go by the head, choose rolex; if you go by the heart and wishes to be stand apart from the crowd, consider the blancpain.

Thanks bro TeenTitan01, yeah my head been telling me the Rolex sub is my holy grail but after I saw the fifty fathoms my heart tells me this is it

Truly a stunning piece when I saw it, shall find one day to go to the boutique to molest it

[cichlid]

the Inox range ? I also looking at the ang ang one ...

Yes, lucky I stopped myself. Looks really good though with round indices and cool plastic cover with dome. But lume is not strong and bezel action not so nice.
