Some dislike the bezel, but I like it because it does not scream "Rolex". Also love the fact that this is the non-engraved rehault version for similar reasons.



Biggest regret? Not putting down a deposit on the NOS 14270 that was in the showcase before I left for the trip. When I got back in town and thought I was going to buy the Exp I as well (for my dad), it had been sold.....at a very nice discount too!

Will have to head back and get the bracelet sized later this week (watchmaker who normally sizes the bracelets was not in) and start wearing it!
I love this watch because the bezel absolutely SCREAMS "ROLEX!!"
Love it
