Sorta feels like a Louis Vuitton bag. That company is enamored with their own Logo that it actually becomes a design element.

I like the fact that my Rolexes only have ONE logo on the dial...any more and they should PAY me to advertise for them! ;-)

I like lug holes and plastic crystals
But for a modern watch I think its too busy around the Rehaut. Ive owned 2 LV subs and the one with the rolexrolexrolex didnt last 2 days on my hand I couldnt stand the Rehaut

Doesn't bother me... since its so subtle... i can barely see it when I look at the watch straight on.

I'm indifferent to it for the most part. I admit to thinking it was pretty cool when I first got my GMT, but that kind of faded away. I wouldn't mind getting a pre RRR watch at some point, because I like the cleaner look, but if the engraving helps prevent some counterfeiting, I'm cool with it.

The only problem I see is the quality control. Rolex seems to have a hard time lining up the 12'clock and the crown properly. Otherwise, on a steel watch like my Subbie, it's not really noticeable.

I love the engraving, but also it's so nice having the serial number right there...

Oh and another thing, on a Daytona, the RRR unofficially signifies that it carries the blue parachrome (from what I read)

"Hate it" is a little strong, but I definitely prefer a Rolex without it.
