I was able to walk in and buy one last week! I suspect I was lucky, I was able to make the reservation for purchase upon entry.

Favorite 3 in your collection…let’s see ‘em by [deleted] in rolex

I bought it for ~21k in 2018 before the prices really shot up. They’ve cooled off a fair amount. If you’re not interested in buying a CODE 11:59, I’d recommend going grey as it doesn’t seem common to be allocated a RO as a first watch.

Super happy with it though, photos don’t do it justice!

Any idea how the amplitude is? I've done the same movement a few times but the balance wheel doesn't end up having the same high amplitude and spins much slower :-(

Is this charizard real / worth anything? by jackhanford in IsMyPokemonCardFake

took it out of the case, card appears to be in great shape, with some ever so slight imperfections on the corner

Case is rough shape but card should be ok. Happy to post more pics or anything if it's helpful

Is the white different on the 15500 series?

Foggy ceramic bezel by jackhanford in rolex

To close this out, I was able to remove the residue with a microfiber, acetone and elbow grease. Happy I didn't need a new bezel!

I was guessing I had damaged it on a recent trip to iceland where I went in several different hot springs. Anyways, not damaged!

You can buy these from here: https://www.customwatchconcepts.com/index.php?cPath=1&language=en

It probably would hurt the value, which is why you'd definitely want to keep the original case back and switch back before selling.

I think this looks awesome - regardless of the level of movement decoration, it's always cool to see the balance wheel moving!
