Doing the Bump & Grind
Nope, not a sequel to Dirty Dancing but a look at the Rolex Incabloc shock protection system, up close and personal. Ever wonder how that delicate balance assembly survives life's daily bumps and grinds? Now you know!

Well Al as far as I know Rolex has always used the KIF anti shock system except the Tudors with ETA that would be Incabloc.And now they use there own shock system which they call Paraflex in some models but whether Incabloc,Kif,Paraflex or any other name they all do basically the same job.
