Your TOPMOST PRIORIY when buying a Rolex!!

[JJ Irani]

Hi guys,

Pretty basic stuff, but very important.

What would you consider your most important priority when buying a new Rolex?

Easy....check the DIAL with a 10x loupe. If you don't have one, borrow the AD's loupe, but make sure you carry out a thorough examination of the DIAL for at least 2~3 minutes. Take you own sweet time......this is what you look for:-

1. Any lint or minute dust particle on the dial.

2. Check all the words and lettering for printing flaws.

3. Check for any dots or tiny scratches on the dial.

4. Check for luminova "overflow" over the WG or YG surrounds.

If you do all of the above BEFORE you plonk down a single cent, you will have complete peace of mind once you've taken your new Rolex home.

As for the rest of the watch.......well, I don't think you need really worry.

The bracelet, clasp and watchcase are well protected with the protective stickers and will not scratch.

So remember, guys.....it's the DIAL you really have to be concerned about.....just because Rolex quality control does tend to slacken at times.

Good luck - JJ
