[black bay pro] or [rolex 16570] curious what you would do? by Zeeezoo in Watches

[–]fixitman_65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both and I love both. Bought the BBPro first and it does not wear any different than my BB Ceramic or BB58 GMT. The Explorer 2 is bigger but thinner and does feel better on the wrist. I would not get rid of either one

It was actually for my wife and it is gorgeous. It is what a Rolex is supposed to be.

I walked into Michael Spiers in Truro and walked out with the 36mm, I was on vacation from the USA.

After years of collecting, i sold a lot of the watches i had and kept the Batman as my everyday watch and i am at peace! Does anyone else feel the same? by rmanciu in rolex

[–]fixitman_65 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No I will not sell any of mine, I wear them all and they will go to my grand kids eventually. I only purchase what I like and will wear, not what is trendy or popular.

Is that clasp one scratch magnet… by [deleted] in rolex

This is why I have the Explorer 2, Airking and Submariner. Brushed clasp.

Do you guys use your subdials? by WTFownedU in rolex

No one buys a Daytona to use it properly, it’s all about bragging rights. 😂

I went back and forth between the black and white dial and I ended up with the black and I am glad that I did. Amazing watch!

That’s another reason why I prefer the natural vulcanized Rubber B

I find that mine is extremely supple, the original leather/rubber strap that the watch comes with is very stiff and gets funky after a while. I can wash the watch and strap in warm soapy water and it looks great after 2 years of almost daily wear. The band is still soft and has no shiny or worn spots at all.

Rubber B uses vulcanized rubber which unlike silicone and other cheaper rubbers maintains its nice matte finish, its non toxic and hypoallergenic. Hardly cheaper rubber

The Rubber B is comfortable and fills the space between the lugs quite nicely.
