Doxa SUB 5000T

issing Skrev:@Willy: you rate their watches as Rolex? Hmm... their movements are simple "standard" rated ETAs or Selita (adjusted to 3 positions) and basically all their cases are done in China...

Not that I'm a Rolex lover, but comparing the two is far off IMO. But hey, both companies are located at the same street in Bienne, so maybe that counts for something

That being said, I do like their orange diver which is a classic.

Citat:

willy The caliber inside a Rolex Sub is nothing to shout about it is a mass produced basic caliber with not much of a finish.It is strong and reliable and that is all there is to say about it.A reworked ETA caliber inside any IWC is of a higher standard.Doxa are well known and respected in the dive world as one of the best.Rolex mass produce nearly 1.000,000 watches a year.And everything i have read about how they assemble their watches reminds me of a car factory.Doxa have i would say recieved more acknowledgements for their dive watches than Rolex.Doxa are respected all over the world for their research and development of dive watches.And i would say they are true tool dive watches unlike modern Rolex watches that are highly polished dress divers.And any CT machine placed in China can make the same case has the same CT machine placed in the swiss alps.I like Rolex and i respect them but at the same time i know exactly what they are .
