My AD had one a few years ago and sold it to a male customer who had bought it for his wife to wear.

Saw this in person,
I couldnt tell that it was a rolex lol.
The person who bought that was a celebrity

I considered that watch to be out of my price range so..
I ended up getting the SANR version, which is Just center Band Diamonds and Bezel/Lugs

Mine does, catches a whole lot of attention, Alittle too much even for me.
and Mine only has half of the diamonds this 500k watch does

Just wore it this past Saturday to a wedding, I kept catching people looking at it.
I think they were trying to figure out what watch it is and if it's fake lol

I actually think the dial is pretty awesome looking. But I would never spend that kind of money on bling. Hell, I would never spend that kind of money on any watch (even if I had the funds to justify it)! Maybe a car. But not likely even that. :D

Now let's see...

Quote:
THIS IS A MODEL # 116710, STAINLESS STEEL WATCH WITH INSIDE BEZEL ENGRAVINGS.
Quote:
THE HEAD, MOVEMENT AND DIAL HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY COVERED IN DIAMONDS.
Quote:
THIS IS WATCH LOOKS IDENTICAL TO THE ORIGINAL ROLEX ICE
Doesn't sound right at all to me...

EDIT: Just found what was wrong!

Quote:
STAINLESS STEEL WATCH THAT IS COMPLETELY COVERED IN DIAMONDS 29 CARATS PERFECTLY CALIBRATED, GUARANTEED, BEAUTIFUL CUSTOM DIAMONDS VS CLARITY. F COLOR.
And below...

Quote:
Some custom or aftermarket ACCESSORIES such as certain diamond dials, diamonds bezels, and bands are AFTERMARKET / CUSTOM or AUTHENTIC FACTORY ROLEX so READ THE WHOLE DESCRIPTION to be sure you know what you are buying.

I think it's nice looking, but the expense is laughable. ...maybe in another life!

I can understand this watch isn't everyone's taste and some people will even refer it as ugly (if not worst), people are entitled to their opinions after all. However, isn't it harsh to make the allusion that people who like it don't have taste?

Perhaps I misunderstood your post but that's the way I read it.
