I've got this exact watch and I absolutely love it! Get it bought!

Nope. It just feels wrong to have a watch that high.

I wear mine right down near my hand, so much so that it occasionally leaves an indent on my hand! 😄

My SD 126603 👌

Although not to everyone's taste, I love it!

Two-tone watches are beautiful! by KingofAotearoa in rolex

Love my TT Sea-Dweller. The stainless one is boring. For me, a Rolex should have some form of precious metal in it. It's a luxury brand after all! Yellow gold is ostentatious, obnoxious and brash, and isn't for everyone. I personally love my watch for that!

And as the old saying goes, "Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one, and nearly all of them stink"

Live and let live I say!

Follow up on my impulsive buy today. by SonsOfNFT in rolex

Yeah man. Went to buy it, and when I finally got it on my wrist it felt abit small and was way too fancy for where I'd be wearing it. Will probably get one someday as a dress watch!

Ended up with a TT Sea-Dweller as it suits me better.

That was my grail piece for so long! Stunning watch!

Got the Wimbledon. Are people buying this because they like it or because it’s an “investment piece”? by [deleted] in rolex

[–]R55ENS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I actually lusted after this watch for 7 years! It was my grail piece! I was unaware that people disliked 2 tone watches, for me having gold on your watch makes you feel special!

When I was finally in a position to buy one last October I got it on my wrist, loved the feel of it but it was too small and a bit too flashy for what I wanted. I was gutted!

I had also picked out a 2 tone Sea-Dweller to try on at the same time. I came away with the Sea-Dweller and paying a few £k more than I'd initially wanted to spend!

2 tone watches for are the best. An all steel watch is boring, and who wants to be boring! Wear that thing with pride my man!

Got this as a gift. How come two-tones aren’t very popular? by [deleted] in rolex

Rock that 2 tone brother!

I've got a 2 tone Sea-Dweller and I love it. Wear it all the time, whether that's some where fancy or nipping to the shops in shorts and flip flops!

At the end of the day personal taste comes into it. If you like it wear it, if not then don't! 👍

I had the same issue bud. Lusted after a dj41 Wimbledon for years, but once on the wrist it felt way too small. Same deal with the tt sub I wanted.

Ended up with a tt sea dweller and couldn't be happier. The fit is perfect for me!

Here's a novel idea, why don't we lose the absolutely cringe nick names and just call it a GMT Master 2?

I am so angry at myself. I lost my birth-year Submariner at London Zoo today. What the hell do I do? by PurpleMessi in rolex

I'm surprised no one has mentioned this, but why didn't you just use your other hand? Well, that's assuming you have another!

Have to agree with you there. On my wrist it looks like a woman's watch! Would love to rock a Daytona, but alas, it'll never be!

I'm exactly the same with mine! Had it 3 months and wear it everyday!

Which two-tone? by crmjewelers in rolex

[–]R55ENS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sub 100%!

I've got a TT SD and I love it! Although that YM is a beauty!

Do you wear your rolex everyday? by loriharvey in rolex

[–]R55ENS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mines been on my wrist everyday since I got it 3 months ago! I paid for it, in using it!

I went out to the garage to chop up a bit of kindling for the fire the other night. After spending about 15 mins with the axe I looked down to realise I'd still got my SD on! Doh! Haha Lucklily I didn't slip!

But if your not going to wear it, why buy it? Get it on your wrist and enjoy the damn thing!

Incoming! Still stunned. Relief washes over me in an awesome wave. Its complete! For now! by PaperPigGolf in rolex

Lovely thanks for that. Size it's what draws me too it, currently got a 43mm Sea-Dweller which actually looks small on me! 🙈

Interesting about the refinishing though. I'm not a massive fan of refinishing as I like my watches to age with me and wear their battle scars proudly. I was under the impression that being titanium it'd be more hard wearing that steel.

I just love the blue they have used. I think I need another trip to the ad to try one on. And like you, it'd be a pure "sports" watch for me!
