Rolex to Remove "Oyster" Reference From their Lineup...
O.K., Don't shoot the messenger. I recently learned that Rolex is planning to remove "Oyster" as a reference to most of their line-up. Apparently they no longer want be viewed as insensitive and this will prevent Shellfish/Bivalves from feeling offended. Has anyone else heard of this newest development? Let the speculation begin...

Perhaps they should change it to Native-Mollusks to avoid offending?
