Maybe just a bad pic, but looks like something bought on the streets of New Delhi

I'm not sure I would have even thought this was a Rolex if I came across it anywhere but here. Not my thing at all.

I like it but I imagine it’s very heavy and very expensive.

My opinion of the rainbow us still the same as my view of this..

Disgusting junk.

An unappealing overhyped watch made worse with its functionality destroyed.

Tacky and cheap (looking)

For investment, if you can get it at MSRP and have the spare cash, youd damn well get it, just like the Rainbow.

That said looks wise I'm more of a fan of the EOTT OF version as that has no diamond lugs which makes it look less messy.

See you at 2.5x retail on Chrono24 in a few weeks
That said - I threw up a bit I think. The old rainbow was gaudy (until it got Mayered) but this one is just terrible...

I have seen an EOT on my jeweler’s wrist (although not the variation shown).

I was not impressed. The amount of busy scrollwork for the channel-set diamonds looks almost amateurish.

If it was done with pavè-set diamonds in the exotic design then maybe not so distracting?

I don't know if this one is for real but I can tell you its a 2021 release from Rolex.
There also is a new 2021 white gold eye of the tiger on Oysterflex. My personal choice.

But THIS thing? It’s glitzed up everywhere!!!

To be fair, this is much more than a wild bezel

Hey, Rolex makes it so it's for a market niche. They will be very limited and thus in demand at a huge mark up. Not my cup of tea but that it in a nutshell.

I saw this one in person. It is definitely not my cup of tea but done very well (craftsmanship wise). I think this is one of those extremely rare releases but there will be plenty of flashy celebrities looking to own.
