'08 C300 Lux Barolo Red Beige Leather P2 MM 18" wheels '84 944
Speedy
Case shape is totaly different as are the pushers and the whole look of the dial not just the sub dials. The 3, 6, 9 subdials is only one of two choices the other is 6, 9 and 12 (if you want full functions on your chrono). Also the Speedy Pro is a classic but it is far from the first to have that dial layout. The functions of the subdial are also flipped between the two

Don't get a fake
I saved up for almost 10 years to buy my Rolex. That's not because I couldn't have bought it sooner, but because I wanted to feel good about the purchase, knowing that I used only money that would've been wasted (ie, the 10th beer on a Thurs night at university, the extra lap dance at 4am, you know - things like that ![rolf](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rofl.gif)
I really like the Sea Dweller, it's understated, bullet-proof, mechanical, will keep time relatively accurately for as long as you maintain it properly.
For those that like a bigger watch, the Sea Dweller's new version is quite nice.
My opinion on fakes is this: (No disrespect intended)
Buying a fake watch is like wearing a strap-on, it may look like a d!(k, it may work like a d!(k, but it just isn't a d!(k and it sure as hell doesn't make you a man.
