Oops, missed a few!
I’m at my office today and hear a little noise while typing. Look at my keyboard, don’t see anything. Glance at my shirt cuff, nada.
Go back to typing and hear the little scratch again. Its faint but there. This time when I look at my wrist, my shirt is up a little and I see the clasp of my TT SD43. At first I thought I had a piece of tape stuck to it but when I went to pull it off, find it’s attached under the clasp. Ahhhahh, I know what that is. There is a remnant original sticker that was missed. I have no idea why but seeing the little protective sticker brought out a smile. I know this watch is only a few weeks old but it reminded me of the first time it was taken out of the the box and who doesn’t love that feeling of handling your new Rolex. As I am removing the sticker, I don my readers thinking, “Did I miss any others?” Well to my surprise I did. Not one but two others. Hah! Anyone else find they missed removing any of the original stickers down the road? How long before you did? And if so, I bet you smiled too!

I've experienced this before too. I still have one sticker left on 4 year old Explorer II.

I’ve still got a few small stickers on my Daytona the AD didn’t take off. I really don’t mind them there.

I’ve been there. They are so well done and installed they become almost invisible.
