Incoming! The biggest and deepest Rolex ever. It's Huge.

Dropped into my AD yesterday, hoping to find a pair of earrings for my daughter. Normally, when I shop for Christmas gifts, I end up buying the best gift for myself. I don't intend to shop for myself, it just happens. It's like a talent I was born with, and you can't escape your talents.

While browsing, the manager said something has just arrived that I had to see. He said it was probably something I would want in the collection. You know what, he was right!

Finally, a Rolex so special it doesn't come in a generic box. This has a model specific box! Ohh yeah, there was a watch in the box too!

I honestly never thought I would get to see one of these.

Some watches tell time, others make you smile. This one fits into the smile category. I can't look at it without smiling. It's not as big as most Invicta's, but for Rolex, it's Huge!

Anyway, go visit your AD. You never know what may have just arrived.

Can you take a pic against a mirror? The cell phone shots always magnify the watch. My hunch is this actually looks very 'normal' on you.

Quite a statement piece and absolutely not a watch for a 1 watch guy unless he's a giant LOL

I like it, but it's too big for me to wear one unfortunately.

You clearly don’t have a 7 inch wrist, just like DXL Big & Tall store isn’t for everyone…

Good post. It has some heft but not to horrible at 248 grams. Solid gold Sky-Dweller's weigh about the same. White gold YMII and Platona's are heavier.
