More 5167 pics
Hi All -
Recent member - I didn't realize there was such a strong PP following within the Rolex forum! Great information and discussion threads. Thought I'd add in some shots - esp. one of the clasp, which I always find impressive. I have another PP with white gold deployant clasp that is just stunning.... 5167 is just a perfect watch for me. Love it so much I actually purchased two and figured I'd have a rubber / steel available to rotate. I've found the rubber strap so comfortable I'm leaning towards just keeping one now. We'll see.... |

Hi All -
I'm relatively new to TRF - didn't realize there is such a strong PP following on a Rolex site! This is a great resource with some valuable discussion threads. Attaching here some pics of my 5167. I included a shot of the band and clasp as I find that an important design element along with the watch movement and face. I have another PP with a deployant clasp and I find myself smiling when I look down and catch a glimpse.... Like others on the forum have mentioned, I find the rubber strap to be very comfortable and easy to wear. I actually bought two 5167s with the intention of having one on a bracelet - but I've had no motivation to change from the tropical strap as a regular wear. What a spectacular timepiece! -J |

Thanks -
No, they are both 5167/A actually. Yes - it's kind of goofy. Luckily, I'm blessed with a very understanding wife.... |

Got mine a couple of weeks ago. There seemed to be a flurry of incoming 5167's recently....

Can the 5167's movement take as much of a beating as a subC movement? This question is only about the movements in both watches. Not about cases.

Because of you all and your awesome photos, I picked one up yesterday from my AD. I did not have them size it so as soon as I size it I will post pictures. Thanks to all for those wonderful posts.

Can the 5167 movement take as much of a beating as a Sub movement? Or are they more delicate?
