I like this customized Sub but not sure if I'd ever wear one to be quite honest. At least it gives us good ideas on mods that we can do at home via a reliable watchmaker.

I do love the 20 in Red!!!

Yeah but there are a number of things I wouldn't like. For one, I wouldn't want Slam Jam on the dial.

I completely agree. Not a fan of custom mods but I appreciate the different look of it.

Power Play · 5 August 2011, 03:59 AM

Interesting but, um, yuck. Just MHO.

conrail · 5 August 2011, 04:03 AM

This came up a while ago I recall? I love everything about it except the God awful "SlamJam" printing on the dial. Those self-promoting asses could have left that off and stuck it on the caseback or something :)

Annan · 5 August 2011, 04:13 AM

Makes it look like a bad fake IMO.

HongNinja · 5 August 2011, 04:20 AM

"SlamJam" = FAIL.

Mods devalue and pull from the way a Rolex is supposed to look. It's like those guys that put tiny Daytons on a Z28 or a Mustang GT.... WHY?

Ive seen some PVD mods I liked as well as some diamond mods, but I'd never do that on my Rollies. They look great just the way they are.

I do like customized watches, as long as I was able to put it back to the original.

But "Slam Jam" =

Newportkrieger · 5 August 2011, 05:16 AM

I may be a little obtuse here but I do not see the point of the watch..... it looks like a "homage" FAKE to me!

jay_kay · 5 August 2011, 05:21 AM

Bad watch but by the look of the last pic you get the original dial, strap and bezel in the box with it. At least you could get it put back to a standard COSC non date!!

MB7000 · 5 August 2011, 05:21 AM

yup, No slam jam for me...it looks too much like slim jim.....

Zhanger · 5 August 2011, 05:28 AM

While I do appreciate PVD, black Nato's, red date wheels and seconds hands... Slam Jam branding does not make the cut.

Newportkrieger · 5 August 2011, 05:29 AM

One would think that if they were on the ball they would have noticed the market potential of a Matte dial with printed super lume indices...

TSW · 5 August 2011, 05:29 AM

Not for me

Onikage · 5 August 2011, 05:31 AM

Why did they have to colour the 20 in?! WHY?!

Just so you don't forget its a 20th anniversary commemorative watch. Its all about "them"

expensivetaste · 5 August 2011, 05:39 AM

I like it! Let's not forget there are other variations with company names on the dial, to each his own I suppose.

They highlight the 20 on the bezel commemorating the 20th anniversary of the company. Slam Jam was Founded by Luca Benini in Ferrara in 1989, Slam Jam is one of the main distributors of street wear, following its evolution also through various parallel and more sophisticated markets.

mjclark32 · 5 August 2011, 05:42 AM

I've got mixed feelings on this one...

ErikXIV · 5 August 2011, 05:58 AM

No.

Speed · 5 August 2011, 07:22 AM

Don't snap into a Slam Jam!
