    What a waste !!!

    Just happened to fall across this and thought what a waste. Why tell everyone you can only afford a Rolex because you sell the stuff that’s on the dial.

    That must be a mod as I doubt Rolex would put that dial on an otherwise perfectly good Datejust.

    As if your biggest problem with the watch is the fact it’s two tone! Haha

    Don't see the problem personally - for many (non WIS) people, having a Rolex is all about showing off your wealth, so they are just being honest about where they got their cash from !

    Wasn't there a dealer (in Sussex?) turning out re-dialled Rolex monstrosities like this?

    I seem to recall that there were other "issues" as well.
    Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.

    Yep, they were all over ebay at one time in various garish colours.

    I recall a Domino’s Pizza-dialled AirKing some years back.
    I really wish I had that watch!

    I don’t think that’ll command ££££’s even if it’s rare!

    Only a certain few would buy that!

    There were a few of them around back in the day, prizes for sales I believe.

    Around the same time frame I recall the Philippine Airlines Tudors too.

    Quite realistic prices for both of these in the past but like anything Rolex/Tudor now probably fetch good money.
    Cheers,
    Neil.

    Probably not. They wear Richard Milles, Patek Nautilus and Rainbow Daytona’s these days. It’s not 1995.
