I started a thread about this not too long ago, and it attracted a host of responses....

I'd consider getting a crisp coronet somewhere(already have tatts), but a smaller one.

Maybe a Rolex tattoo helps remind you of who made the watch you are wearing becuse looking at it you would never know.

Lets see where to put the Rolex tattoo ... above the Mercedes Benz tattoo, next to the BMW roundel tattoo and of course, below the Harley Davidson tatoo...

BTW.. REAL MEN have Patek Philippe tattoos where only the GF can see them....

That DD tattoo is amazing.
I'm not a tattoo kind of guy but I really like some tattoos and some people can carry them very well.

Yeah, but the date is only right once a month. Not so good.

dddreees, look at the date - seems like 08 should never come up on a true cyclops. funny. and i seriously doubt he owns a real one to wear on the 'body art'.

Your right, makes you wonder if he got a fake Rolex tattoo or its an aftermarket date wheel tattoo?

The only useful part of Rolex to make into a tattoo is the Crown, you can take that crown and use it for many things.

But, these examples of Rolex tattoos disgust me.

I couldn't get a Rolex tat, but that does beg the question... how is this any different than folks who go out and get Harley Davidson tattoos after getting their bikes?

Do we see those the same way?

Chris,
Good Point..
I like my Harleys, my Rolexs and my Porsche and my Labrador Retriever but I do not understand putting any of that in an ink mark..
Maybe I just do not get it..
