That looks amazing! It's perfectly see-through.

Do you use Veraet to polish it?

Mmm...won't it make your rolex not looking like one? Well I guess whatever makes the owner happy. But I prefer original looking

I can't see it being a popular alternative
Great watch, even better with a nice thick font bezel insert

You had me going! I was scratching my head trying to figure it out. Your last pic brings it all together in a very nice insert! Well played, sir!

You guys thought I was serious? I thought by the emoticons I used you would know I was joking. Hard to translate sense of humor over the intarwebz sometimes
