Thanks, Mikey, but I'm pretty sure that pimped up Rolex which is the main subject of this thread, is a fake. Even the worst after market bezel can't be that bad!!!

As for the TT Blue Sub....it's always been a very popular model....even in the old days when the BLACK was actually more popular than the BLUE. But the TT Subs have always been popular.

The Leopard Daytona, in all fairness, is being totally marred by that spotted dial and the stupid strap.

Lose the dial....replace it with a nice ivory dial. Lose that ugly strap and replace it with a solid gold original Daytona bracelet.....and I think we will have a winner.....bling-bling all the way.....but a WINNER nevertheless.

And another thing...I started this thread. How come your post appears first??

People with poor taste should never own a Rolex watch.

chris_nor_cal · 2 January 2008, 05:06 PM

you guys can flame me but i think the leopard daytona is cool. i would totally rock that if i was a rock star

jordo9998 · 2 January 2008, 05:34 PM

the rolex is not fake, it just has a bunch of aftermarket crapola added to it.. the diamond bezel is not missing diamonds.. the bezel on that watch acts as a track and the diamonds them selves move around the bezel. it is ugly... the watch is real but everything is aftermarket.

Incurable · 2 January 2008, 05:46 PM

Real or not, it's ugging fugly...

That pic is one I originally posted in an "Ugly Watch" thread on another forum, but also here.

Why exactly did you bump a thread that's nearly four years old?

Think of how dull it would be if we all wore nothing but stainless Submariners. Stylistic diversity adds some spice and as long as i'm not forced to wear one, why not. It just sitting on some wrist somewhere and probably giving someone a big laugh.

klayface · 24 April 2011, 02:28 PM

Ahh dammit, Kakalika beat me to it.

Well there's that and then a sub with a third party diamond bezel.

Ehhhh!!

StarSovereign · 24 April 2011, 03:39 PM

You know what that watch needs? More diamonds!!!
