    116600 Wonkiness..

    Have a look at this piece of Rolex quality control. At first you think the crown is wrong, then you realise it's the hour markers!

    Hmm, all the hour markers look off by a different amount. I wouldn't have thought a Rolex would leave the factory like that....

    That’s got to be a rarity. A Friday afternoon shift special from Rolex.

    Bound to be worth over £100k in years to come, as long as the dial isn’t changed lol
    It's just a matter of time...

    It's for sale - at a premium, as a rare 'error dial', FFS!

    That's a rare shifted dial! I'd keep it and sell in 10-20 for millions.

    Are people who buy these error dials totally mad? You could just buy a Seiko SKX007/9 for the same effect.

    That’s all over the place. Pretty rare for Rolex though to be fair.

    If that's a Rolex, I'll eat my cat.

    Can't be, surely!

    Presumably not a rolex? The end links are riding pretty high, too.

    The 1st post one isn't mine, pics are from the Rolex FB group.

    I'm sure it's genuine!

    The wrist shots are of mine purchased new on the 4k release date.

    Either the pic is edited, or the watch is a counterfeit. Don’t believe everything you see on FB, there’s no editorial control.

    Although the one in your wrist shot is far from "identical"
    It's just a matter of time...
