Stunning strap engraving.

Yeah I explored having this done to my black bay red case but pretty pricey.

How pricey is pricey as a guide?

At least £2000 for case. A full bracelet would add maybe £3500-£4000 mire

Ouch, love it but a little rich for me there.

I think the skill involved in engraving to such a high standard is breathtaking, but l think it looks totally out of place on that watch.
On the side of a shotgun, yes, but that rolex has in my opinion - and that's all it is - been completely defaced...

I am undecided whether I feel it is defaced or a thing of beauty. Absolutely it is very tasteful and artistic but not sure its in the right place.

But financially out of my reach!!!

I guess it would make it really difficult if I you had to move it on!

Best not send it back to a RSC for service... "Sir required a service case and bracelet as we cannot remove the deep scratches"

Imagine getting that back with all of those "deep scratches" polished out! I doubt there would be much case or strap left!

“You’ll have your work cut out. Rolex uses this super special steel...”

“Yeah yeah”

Something similar but at a lower price.

Completely agree.

Thanks for posting OP. It's not something I'd have done but it looks amazing nonetheless.

I should imagine his works would look amazing on a shotgun.

For me, the problem isn't the money - my wife'll pay for it - but the lead time.

Good engravers I've approached can't complete commissions for 2 or 3 years.

I had Viljo do the work on my Panerai;

His lead time varies, but its not as long as mentioned above, and his charges are significantly less than quoted above aswell.
