A watch thats encrusted with an unfeasible amount of gems/diamonds, some are so hideous and cluttered you wonder how the hands move?

a watch that ain't a watch anymore.

A Rolex is a superb watch but they just don't make masterpieces.

When you screw it up with a lot of sissy diamonds you don't make a masterpiece, you're ruining it.

A masterpiece is for example a Patek 5004, a Lange Tourbograph, ...

If that's a masterpiece , what are all the rest then, Junk?
I don't think so , ugly watchers for poeple with too much
money and no taste ;especially the yellow gold one its looks like a
cheap Sekonda , with fake Diamonds .

I think Rolex should relook at the term 'Masterpiece' and produce limited watches with execptional movements , see Lange & Sohne or Patek .
Perpetual calandars with a chronograph?

The posers that buy these "masterpieces" should have their ass kicked. If no one bought them, then Rolex would no longer make them.
