Those damn stickers....

We all know about how crazy Rolex is with those damn stickers that comes with a brand new Rolex. Anyways, for the past couple of days, I've been hearing this subtle crackling under my wrist. I thought it was just papers while I desk dive. When I got home, I kept hearing it again. I knew it couldn't have been papers. I opened up my clasp and looked under the easylink. Lo and Behold, there was a sticker peeling up from underneath the clasp!! I cannot believe that the sticker was still there, despite the amount of times I've showered, cleaned and swam with the it. It's been over a year and a half since I got this watch!

I discovered mine in the exact same spot two months after purchase.

Took a pair a tweezers & pulled it off.

Now that is funny. You inspired me to check my one year old Sub...looks like I found that one when I first got it.

Ha thats pretty funny the sound must have been driving you nuts. I was surprised to find a sticker on a GMTII I flipped a while back...I though the bracelet was dirty and off came the sticker.
