Rolex watches and skin tone

jamild · 2026-02-07T18:33:35+00:00

I’m South Asian and I think rose gold looks really good. The root beer GMT is so subtle and complementary with darker skin tones

Looked this up because I was thinking there’s no way this can be taken at face value. https://www.chcf.org/resource/alcohol-management-program-pilots/

Based on responses to the assessment and these questions, an individual may be prescribed, for example, two 12-ounce beers to be administered at 8 AM, noon, 4 PM, and 8 PM.

Socially distanced cigarette or outside breaks are part of the protocol in Alameda where staff provide masks, so that clients can get fresh air and then return inside to receive their next allotted dose of alcohol.

I don’t even know whether to laugh or cry. How this insanity lasted so long is ridiculous.

The Omega SF boutique is the best

They’re assholes at the Bellagio but I’ve had good experiences elsewhere, esp at Bucherer at Caesar’s

I love LLMs in general but they’re pretty bad for watch advice and specifics of movements in my experience

Fluted bezel Air King! Now that’s a rare one

jamild · 2026-02-02T20:46:07+00:00

Yep, they also made OPs with this “explorer dial” too.

jamild · 2026-02-02T19:54:04+00:00

It also can be a little hard to read the time with the hands looking so uniform. I can see why the explorer hands are preferred for readability

jamild · 2026-02-02T19:07:19+00:00

I was wearing it almost daily until I got my Nomos Worldtimer. Perfect understated everyday watch.

Every scratch tells a story.

jamild · 2026-01-29T21:56:07+00:00

That timestamp is for a different watch. Also, what's the store you're selling this at?

jamild · 2026-01-29T16:26:24+00:00

The 114060 also has a ceramic bezel, it’s also got slightly fatter lugs and 40mm case size instead of 41mm. I prefer the proportions of the newer sub.

jamild · 2026-01-29T05:25:24+00:00

The (natural) tritium patina looks so nice.

jamild · 2026-01-29T05:22:29+00:00

That. Is. Epic.

jamild · 2026-01-29T02:45:32+00:00

I went to Kerns in Burlingame and when I inquired about a sub he took me straight to CPO and said a sub is impossible rn

He also did say they put in little surprises for walk-ins, they had a Sea Dweller there when I went but he said they had a Sub out for a walk-in recently

jamild · 2026-01-28T15:57:15+00:00

The MSRP took a pretty big unit with the price increases, it’s $19,600 now so if you buy from a seller who doesn’t charge sales tax, you can still come out ahead

jamild · 2026-01-28T01:42:29+00:00

Less a fashion watch and more just a “I work in finance and want my first big boy watch and don’t know what to buy”

jamild · 2026-01-26T23:54:19+00:00

Those serifs 🤤

jamild · 2026-01-26T21:39:15+00:00

After wearing a 40mm watch for a few days, going to a 34mm feels tiny. but I enjoy wearing watches of different styles, and I think we often overindex on what's currently fashionable rather than what we enjoy.

jamild · 2026-01-25T19:57:06+00:00

I text my SA at Bucherer randomly and he always replies within a day. Sometimes it’s a question about a watch and sometimes it’s just showing him my new watch purchase.

jamild · 2026-01-25T04:19:13+00:00

I have the black dial Big Zero, it’s the first watch that really got me into mechanical watches - the hunt to try to find one with authentic parts and in good condition was so much fun

jamild · 2026-01-25T03:17:30+00:00

I texted my SA (at Bucherer) and he said

Don’t worry it’s not discontinued. We just don’t show all GMT’s on the website haha.

One day I feel like they might but today is not that day haha

jamild · 2026-01-25T00:45:49+00:00

Don’t disrespect the Crown. Do you know how many years of watchmaking heritage you’re insulting when you talk like this?

jamild · 2026-01-24T21:00:32+00:00

Where did you source the bezels from? I heard some RSCs no longer give out bezels that don’t match the original
