There is no cheap way to obtain a genuine "iced out" rolex. It is expensive.....all that ice.

You can pick up a bag of ice pretty cheap at your local gas station.

So you want a diamond covered rolex and you're on a budget? That's kinda the opposite of what a watch like that stands for aye?

.....hmmmm something is off here. Iced out Rolex on a 15K budget. Consider buying a female version to save a little money. 🤔

Well, on the eBay Datejust 2, that is about $5-$7k watch before the ice storm hits it. So that puts the hail damage at around $10k.

What is the price for the TraxNY Piece? If it's a white gold GMT underneath, then that's a $30k watch, pre-hailstorm.

So if you really want a hail damaged Rolex, the first is the cheapest.

Are either of those even genuine Rolex offerings?

The Ebay one looks entirely too gaudy and tacky..

The GMT without the bezel function seems improper..

Just my humble steel submariner wearing opinion...

LMAO. My friend who own a shopping mall (not a store) in Texas and he only wear $10 Hanes t-shirt and $20 Levi jeans, albeit he does wear a TT DJ and diamond wedding ring but he look more like a busboy not multi-millionaire like he is.
