jctrolex · 26 August 2013, 03:44 PM

Sure, it might make it harder to read the time, but why do the job halfway? You're not wearing this watch out into the field to tell the time anyway - you've just got the "Rolex gene".

For those reasons, I'd have to pass on this one.

I dont mind the look of the explorer personally and I am anti hunting (I know that will offend many Americans), I just think it makes it look like a cheaper watch than a many thousand $ watch. As for the pepsi it does not look right and is nasty. Arguably the factory mods like the Leopard(?) Daytona are immeasurably more repugnant IMHO.

You call me a snob ! Everyone has different tastes I never would never slam some one who is not afraid to go and do his own thing .

storm66 · 26 August 2013, 10:10 PM

I think it looks horrid!............
But Imagine the different reaction if it was a 'British Military' issue watch with a circled 'T' on the dial

i don't get it.......

Whoa....ok....I have nothing this exciting

tedscott3 · 27 August 2013, 03:49 AM

I personally don't like mods on watches, but I get the feeling a lot of people on this forum like to say how "ugly" they are and how the watch is "ruined" because it makes them feel like more of a Rolex purist. Like they are somehow more into Rolex watches than any one who would think of changing the perfect design that Rolex has come up with. It just seems like there are a lot of threads on here that people will post a picture of a modified Rolex and go on and on about how bad it is. Who cares what other people do with their watches? And why do you feel the need to invest time is calling other people's preferences bad?

Macnavara · 27 August 2013, 05:01 AM

Any nato strap

contrary to what others say I consider these straps a mod and dont like em but at least they arent permanent.

Hey, I'm the one that was told that I couldn't post a picture of a rolex on a pile of ammo. ;)

DreambreaX · 27 August 2013, 02:33 PM

good modification

Chainring · 27 August 2013, 02:38 PM

Yeah I don't know what you were thinking. That's outrageous! Now a pic of my cousin Bubba Leonard with his giant t-shirt cannon is completely harmless.

Heh, I'd say "low'' instead of "high'' but whichever, I agree!
