Seriously, if ROLEX produced these they'd fly off the shelf like the space shuttle. And to you guys that dislike the DLC, you know you would go to an AD and start to drool.

How · 24 July 2012, 09:27 PM

Me, not a fan of PVD'd or DLC'd (blacked out) Rolexes.

A huge fan of Becks though!

That's why the man makes thirty two flavours.........

If we all liked the same thing, it would be a boring world, and forum.

padi56 · 24 July 2012, 10:32 PM

Not a fan of Beck and even more not a fan of any PVD watches any brand.

smellychips · 24 July 2012, 10:44 PM

Great watch ... great bloke!
one of the world's top style icon's wear's Rolex out of choice... what more do you people want?

I suggest auto delete sport athletes posts!

The watch looked OK. However the skin tight cuff, so that your huge watch has zero chance of fitting underneath, looks horrible. "Hey look at me, I'm wearing a huge watch. See? See? See?" Ok David we all see your watch. It was money well spent. Happy now?

Good for him.

Nowt wrong with the watch or the shirt, it's the clash of all those muted tones for me

The shirt is... faddish to be kind. The too tight cuffs - check. The buttoned top button with no tie - check. Tiny button down color - check. Untucked with the bottom button undone - double check. Just because Thom Browne sells it, that doesn't mean anyone should wear it.

Am I on the wrong forum???!

Perhaps he regrets blacking out his DSSD. That's why he was so cranky

bugawako · 25 July 2012, 08:16 AM

Looks good

David Beckham has an OBE which does not entitle him to be called Sir.

Really?? Why? It's still a rolex. Based on your reasoning, they should delete Or move all posts on modded rolex watches.

I personally love them, want one, and appreciate the posts.

martin_blank · 17 September 2012, 07:54 AM

everyones got an opinion and all..

but if we are talking style and fashion and you come down on the other side of becks...youre probably wrong..

if it were me id find a watch that was originally PVD..but still looks good

ROLEX4EvEr · 17 September 2012, 11:42 AM

What's DSSD

Have to agree on that one but a so called celebrity, as today you have only got to appear on the X factor to be called a celebrity.

I think it looks good but I'd never pay the $$ for one.

The Waddler · 19 September 2012, 03:58 PM

I actually love the haters in these threads

In any other thread almost every Rolex recieves comments like "beautiful watch", "incredible piece", "Gorgeous" etc etc. However make it black and it's ugly, breaks people's hearts (lol), a travesty and borders on sacriledge. Hilarious!

Spend $150k on a Bentley or any other expensive car and then give it some different rims, a custom paint job or a body kit and people say good for you or don't even bat an eyelid. Spend just a few grand on a Rolex and you're persecuted for altering it, like it's some untouchable Rembrandt and not a mass produced timepiece.

I love my GMT, I prefer it brushed but what I love most is people's right to spend their money and do what they like with their purchase.

Actually, resale value would actually go up for anything that David Beckham wears. Many of his customized cars have increased in value. I guess it's the celebrity/football status thing.

Well said!!!!! Not like he painted the first Paul Newman Daytona pink. He got a DSSD that's PVDed. There are plenty around. It's not rare collectible or hard to find. No harm done. Not going to hurt anything by throwing a coating on it. All the haters do crack me up. Calling this a travesty or sacrilege is just too funny. IMHO nothing wrong with making a personal item your own.

Edit. Just saw I posted on this thread saying the same thing a while ago. Oops.
