What do you guys think of this? (BLING I Know!)

Custom dial or did they come from Rolex like that??

Thanks

Eeeeeks!!!

less is more...

mtrunner · 3 June 2011, 12:42 AM

I am pretty sure that is a customized dial. Not my style but it is a great watch for someone who loves bling.

slevin kelevra · 3 June 2011, 12:47 AM

It's certainly not my cup of tea but just trying to find out a bit more about it as it belongs to a friend's dad.

It's BLING-tastic!

Custom... not my cup of tea...

nauticajoe · 3 June 2011, 12:51 AM

Not for me.....

The Federal Reserve called....they said they want their gold back.

rosspanics · 3 June 2011, 01:34 AM

Horrible. Unforgiveable.

Sherwooddavid · 3 June 2011, 01:39 AM

It's not the type of watch I'd wear,but there are probably lots of folks that would.

ec51 · 3 June 2011, 03:19 AM

I'mmm blinnnnnnddddddd.....ahhhhhh

Yikes- not my style but to each his own.

learpilot · 3 June 2011, 03:39 AM

Oh boy !! this can't go well

smallcandle · 3 June 2011, 03:40 AM

Definitely not for me...

RJC · 3 June 2011, 04:19 AM

Aaaarrrrhhhhhh......

buke45 · 3 June 2011, 04:37 AM

Custom I think.
What is the model number?

mjrennie · 3 June 2011, 05:15 AM

Oooh. No!

Looks like something Vladdy's Diamonds on Canal street would sell !!!!!!!

Art 1 · 3 June 2011, 05:40 AM

Not for me.

boogiebot · 3 June 2011, 05:47 AM

i think it has its place for some, but this would definitely not be for me.

mrbill2mrbill2 · 3 June 2011, 05:49 AM

Are you sure it is not a close up of a woman's watch?

clarencek · 3 June 2011, 06:31 AM

That looks custom to me, but I wouldn't put it past Rolex to make something like that. We've all seen the leopard daytona right?

slcbbrown · 3 June 2011, 06:32 AM

I'm no expert, but the colored stones that match on the dial and the bezel almost certainly say "customized". This is probably a fairly expensive set of dial & bezel.

This look isn't my favorite, but if I was in the market for a DD, I would not overlook this one because of the bling. It wouldn't be very expensive to uncustomize it. IMO, if you replace the bezel with a fluted bezel, the whole watch will take a big step down in gaudiness. As flashy as this dial is, it becomes much less so if the bezel has no stones.

BarkMaster · 3 June 2011, 06:57 AM

Anybody see anything wrong in the picture???

Hint: Look at the day. Then the date. Then the crown. etc.

rms · 4 June 2011, 08:18 AM

Not my cup of tea.

Watch Professor · 4 June 2011, 08:28 AM

Painful.

DCgator · 4 June 2011, 09:56 AM

Too much bling bling!

evanvito · 4 June 2011, 10:04 AM

Also, not my cup of tea

Michael M. · 4 June 2011, 10:05 AM

Almost 100% sure that its a aftermarket/customized dial, not my cup of tea.....ouch!!
