My TOG from about 2002 is sharp but not enough to be a problem.

I don't think it is a problem either. I was just curious as to why they are made that way.

Perhaps they are trying to make a point?

Congrats and welcome to the club. Post a pic of your watch. Threads go much better with pictures.

I just purchased mine two months ago. I've not noticed any sharp feeling edges that l can feel. I do wear my watches slightly loose.

Wow sorry to hear that. My DJ41 is probably the most comfortable watch I’ve ever worn. I literally forget it’s there sometimes. Which bracelet do you have, and how tight do you wear it?

The bottom of my GMT lugs are very sharp. Luckily I don’t feel it when I’m wearing it. My DJ lugs seem to be a bit smoother.

2 things 1- I don't feel them either when I wear the watch. I agree it is a fantastic watch and I couldn't be happier. Only when I run my fingers along the watch purposely do I feel the sharpness.
2-it isn't in the bracelet. It is the 4 corners of the actual watch itself.

Gotcha. I think a lot of the responders to this thread missed your points...see what I did there?

In all seriousness, it's just a design element common to most modern Rolex.

Enjoy that beauty!
