Icon3 Permanent Rolex Or Tudor Tattoo

I’ve seen sports fans put team logos on their body and Nascar fans with the number of their favorite driver but anyone ever got one or seen a Rolex crown or Tudor shield in the flesh?

Seen a few on this forum, most not real.

If it has no meaning to me, it doesn’t belong on my skin.

My stepfather got this one back in the 80s - Though not from dedication, he still views a Rolex as a waste of $ which could go to shop tools.

Looks like a fake, the R and the L seem suspicious. One of the prongs on the crown seem a bit larger. Ask him where he bought from and if he got the full set?

Not sure what it has to do with being nice or not, it’s just an observation, one which isn’t very difficult to agree with.

Or is it a backhanded personal slight? I don’t see the topic being replied to or mentioned at all. Unless I’m missing something?

Thank you.

I try to mix it up, and as much as some here think they’re “dumb” or prefer to personally attack me and not discuss the topic, I’m glad you like them.

I think he’s possibly making a point.

We have so many ridiculous posts about scratches the size of a dust particle, not being able to get a 13k watch at Rolex so get emo, do I look good with a watch on, how do I brown nose an AD long enough to get a watch, my rolex is much cooler with a steering wheel in background, I’m shaking so hard I got a call from AD for a watch as a grown man, etc threads so he’s driving home a point.

I think it’s hilarious.

I do admit that it’s less irritating than some of those posts you allude to.

Yes, its getting so silly. Im out. Gonna unload most of them, take advantage of the hype and exhange for something nice from Lange or Patek.

I’ve seen a few in the wild. I’d prefer the watch to the tattoo.

Just checked I with my local tattoo AD , & apparently there is a waiting list of 3-6 years for a Rolex tattoo depending on what reference you want tattooing . If it’s a Daytona it’s looking more like 6 years because of the ink used ,but if it’s a Tudor tattoo you want , then you can walk in anytime with no appointment and have pretty much any choice of Tudor you want as the ink used is freely available.
