I was looking at some of the older 5 digit watches and I miss the oval O in ROLEX.

The 6 digit or at least the sub I have is more rounded

Why is that oval O so special and does anyone miss it as well?

I can't say that I've ever noticed.

I love everything about my five digit!

What did I just walk into...

Goodness guys, we are going too far. Sometimes I wonder if some even use their watch to tell time. That is literally one of the least talked about items, probably second to how the watches actually fit.

The weight and comfort yes.

I’ve never noticed the “O” but I do love love love the 5 digit sport references.

Frakis · 28 June 2018, 03:55 PM

I’ve never noticed, but prefer the slimmer lugs on the 5 digit references.

tk.watch · 28 June 2018, 04:18 PM

I much prefer the 5-digit references aesthetically both on and off the wrist. :)

Now that you mention it. The oval "O" is sublime.
