"hate" is too strong a word.... i'd say "not preferred"

yeah i neither love or hate it. is "keep it" an option? lol best describes my feelings toward it.

if someone gave it to me that'd be a nice casual watch to wear around but i'd never seek it out.

Some days I like it, some days I don’t. The dial is a little busy for me.

It’s the first Rolex I bought with my name on the card. The second was the Explorer. I have a small collection of 6 Rolex models, all different and interesting to me. I like it. I suppose I’m a contrarian.

THIS is busy for me. I know this model is desireable but it's a design nightmare IMHO...

I find it boring myself. But isn't it nice to have choice?

Exactly. The rings around the subdials make this a total failure.
They should do it like 116503 black dial.

I am a big fan and absolutely love mine. I tried to post a picture of mine whilst out skiing in February before the lockdown, but for some reason I am unable to post images on Tapatalk.

Agree 100%.

they think the Air King is too busy.. This is what I call too busy.

Jayhawk1 · 10 April 2020, 09:22 AM

The current one is not for me.... I love its predecessor though.

I agree. Not a fan of the Daytona for the same reason. I know it’s a very desirable Rolex. However, it’s not my style.
