Thanks for sharing, but we still need the picture of the watch to include a copy of today's newspaper in order to properly authenticate the date. Just kidding! Nice watch. :-)

Thats not a daytona??? Are you kidding me?! If I had a better camera I would take a picture of the red wording around the bottom dial that says "DAYTONA" Oh well. There are always those who are hypocritical in response to their jealousy.

LOL, you must not have read his entire post.

What am I missing here?

A real Rolex?

Darrell- that kind of kidding I have no problem with brother. Just people that are always hypocritical because he "knows" my watch. Brother of jealousy, would you like my address, and you can come authenticate it yourself?
[Reply]

You can send it to me, I'll authenticate it for you.
[Reply]

Woops, I got Darrell's post mixed up with Riddicks. :-)
[Reply]

Haha, oh well. Like has been stated before, there are always few hypocrits. Anyways, I have proven myself. Enjoy the thread guys. I am happy it has been quite a learning experience for a few. :-)

That's a good idea my bracelet takes a beating.

Enlighten us?

Touching up a brushed finish is quite easy. There's a tool that looks like a pencil eraser that fixes the brused finish.

When a watch has a mix of polish and brushing you have to be careful.

Those are a ***** maintain.

That is the pain in the rear with my Concord Saratoga.
It has both polished and brushed on the stainless part.
The 18 Kt is all polished.
It is an awesome and comfortable watch but I rarely wear it.

Here is what that one looks like:

Hey thanks for the tip :-). I wear mine loose on my wrist, I think I will take it in and have them take a link out. I have the same issue, I hate tight things on my wrist; reminds me of handcuffs...but that's another story.
[Reply]

Handcuffs are not fun.:-)

I think the concept works of tight around the wrist because if you think about it, if it is loose and gets stretched by your wrist constantly as you use it, eventually, it loosens the links.
By sitting tight on the wrist, that minimizes the chances of that stretching.
As to the tight feel, doesn't have to choke you. Just don't have it with any play on it that allows it to drop. After a while, you get use to it.

BTW,
Same with my wife's. Looks like new.

I figured he was joking. Deadpan sardonic humor doesn't always work well in print.

I think Rolex use hollow links (on some models) to make it feel super light, or they are not using pins through the links.

Does this happen with all their bracelets or just the Jubilee type?
[Reply]

ALL.

You should see some of the Presidential gold bracelets I have seen.
A total worn down mess.
With the gold it is much worse than with stainless.

The watch is heavy, but the band isnt so bad.. When I saw it I expected it to be heavier.
