I would not wear any of those even if they were free. In fact they are so hideous if they were given to me for free I would break them down and sell them off as individual parts, stones and precious metals.

As most comments here will show, none of these over-blinged pieces carry much prestige with TRF members. Just a simple PM model, maybe with diamond markers, will carry the most with most members.

This This is THE Rolex. Yellow gold Day-Date. Symbol of money and symbol of the 80's crazy years in business and financial world. Champagne or white dial with romans and with president bracelet of course.

I think most naysayers to these, like myself can’t play in the arenas these are in.
When you can pop for one of these you are in a different world than the one we are in currently.

SABR is sexy.

Correct. And while he is no doubt amazingly talented on the field, and has earned and deserves to buy whatever he wants, in my opinion he is totally lacking in taste.

I think the Rainbow Day”stona” is very cool due to the color scheme. I dont think people should put down others just because they buy watches like this.

Everyone has their own tastes and to think that everyone has to conform to your standards and tastes is childish and close minded. Would I buy one myself? Probably not because its out of my price range and I’m a low key person. However, I would definitely be happy for any person who purchases one because they like the bling or just have too much money.

These are the most “bling” rolex. Not the most luxurious or prestigious. They are cool to look at as novelties though. Some may disagree but IMHO a 36mm platinum day date and NO diamonds. That’s a classic and can hang with any other watch.

I agree with most here... but in pictures at least, that ice blue Daytona looks really nice. I think that rainbow Daytona is in high demand nowadays, no?

None of those pimp magnets is an example of luxury, IMHO.

I feel like if it were up to some people here Rolex should only produce SS models and scrap gold models altogether
