Rolex

and something we don´t see that often here: Probably not the most popular model, but can some Rolex afficionados tell me why? Oliver...  

My guess because it looks weird and the other version are all awful stuff to stomach. But hey people change and so do taste. Regards Tyler

Interesting question and only time will tell ...

Too thick too big, too cold, too inelegant, too ... much. Of course my 2 cents, VAT included. Best, Nicolas.

Not sure what that says about me, and I am not one for bling, but think of the watch in context. To my eyes, the yellow gold and blue ceramic are just about pitch perfect for yachting off the Italian coast and somewhere near Sardinia. The countdown timer ... 

But the curious thing is that he never included it in his collection... ??? Best, Nicolas.

...it's about that amazing movement. Anyone that can't see that, isn't into horology. Tony

I hope most here like a model with MOP dial and rubies, right ? Can this be a property of a gentleman ? It is 40mm - just right size for a sporty luxury watch. It is beautiful. Agree ? Gary.

Well, why not the " simpler " one, with its beautiful grained platinum dial. Original and elegant. But a MOP and Rubies? Well, not my cup of tea, but why not? Best, Nicolas.

Thanks. Oliver

personally i find the design appealing--but a number of other rolex models more readily quicken my heart...... j

As generations change so do their tastes and styles. And in our economy it's all about supply and demand.

. . . and, in my opinion, the main contributing factor is the constant-running small seconds hand. It just doesn't "fit".

after some years ... maybe you are right.
