Not for me with the gold accents. If it was straight white, I’d wear it.

Looks good, although it’s not for me and in my opinion it is not Rolex.

If you can afford to do it, then why not?

I can't say that I would do that though....

I’m a fan of skeleton watches but it doesn’t work well in this case

I saw him in Vegas last March, passed him on the sidewalk while walking out of Planet Hollywood. He was wearing a glistening full paved Santos. That’s way cooler than this, although having your name engraved in your own custom bezel is pretty baller.

I view those custom pieces as novelties, not really a Rolex. This one is not my favorite but I've seen some flat dark earth and olive drab versions that I'd wear.

So you turn a watch difficult to read to a almost impossible to read. :)
