I like the Lume on my explorer: Its pretty awesome!

I also like the Mercedes Hand, it gives it a nice touch.

Finally, I like the little laser engraved Coronet, excuse me for the dust on this photo.

What do you like about your rolex?

Dr.B · 20 February 2009, 02:28 AM

Love the look of it....SS White Daytona

generic0 · 20 February 2009, 02:31 AM

I like the elegance of my all-silver colored SS/Plat YM.

Nice shot of the LEC!

There is nothing I do not like about my watch,that's why it is on my wrist since the day I got it.

Kokyuryoku · 20 February 2009, 03:06 AM

It's a rolex

R.J.B · 20 February 2009, 03:36 AM

Its clarity!

Just looking at that beautiful dial through its thick sapphire crystal with every marking and piece of lettering utter perfection, it just seems to have a clearness and clarity which I haven't seen on any other brand of watch...almost jewel like!

The fourth hand/24 hour function of my White Face Expy II.

I life the feel and the weight of my Rolexes. (Datejust and TT Sub). I like the sound of the ticking, when I wear it to bed. I like the "Cyclops". I like the shine of the 18K gold. I like the smooth feeling of the turn, as I unscrew the crown, like it has some kind of hydraulic fluid or something. I like the sound of the "clicks" as I turn the bezel. I love the color of the Blue and gold combination, as it always takes me back to the moment when I saw the ad for this watch some years ago (a picture of a yacht). I love the sparkles on the ceiling of my car as I drive, the sun reflecting against the fluted bezel of my DateJust. I love the curves of the DJ's case. I love the comfort of the Jubilee band, and how it wraps around my wrist as though it was custom made. Lastly, I like the feeling every morning, when I put on the watch as the last step of my morning routine.

Tht's just me. Pretty shallow, but never the less, true.

The sparkle from the SS ROLEX Bezel...Really amazing even though there is no bling on my Rolex it still always shinning...

the way it looks and how accurate it is.

Lisa · 20 February 2009, 04:40 AM

I like that it's tough and versatile enough to go from diaper changes to soapy dishwater to yard work to a sushi dinner!

Chris B · 20 February 2009, 04:48 AM

My latest fascination is the flip-lock coronet of my TT GMT IIc, its exquisite

Rolexitis · 20 February 2009, 04:58 AM

I like the simple and practical look of the sub. I also like the way the black looks so deep and you can't mistake the oyster bracelet when seen from across the room....

aleeboy · 20 February 2009, 10:53 AM

The quality and shine that the Oyster bracelet radiates. The iconic cyclops that defines the piece as a Rolex. The word Superlative - I have yet to find a practical way to use this in the real world.

Singslinger · 20 February 2009, 01:23 PM

For me the weight is a big part of the appeal, plus the knowledge that I could actually use any one of them for sporting activity or as a dress watch if I really wanted to, ie the versatility.

The GMT Master · 20 February 2009, 04:58 AM

The understated beauty and elegance, as well as that warm, fuzzy Rolex feeling I get when I wear it

VisibleSpecter · 20 February 2009, 05:03 AM

I would have to say the two tone of the steel on the bracelet, and the way indirect low light in a dark room makes the hands seem to radiate a soft light. haha :)

mixedccr · 20 February 2009, 08:11 AM

Its simplicity, functionality, reliability, go anywhere, do anything, anytime, all the time and i would like to say [most of the time] the icon of who i am. Ready to 'Carpe Diem' as is. Not its as hansome as i am.......heh heh
