Nickel allergy to Rolex

Thanks again for all your great replies on my previous thread, Allergic To Rolex, not sure why thread is closed, but maybe some background to the problem wouldn't go amiss.
The watch is a ladies model, 16620, with a stunning green face, I personally like the Rolex brand as a predominately men's brand, and although their gold and platinum choices are stunning I believe they excel in their stainless steel "tank" versions.
On choosing a ladies watch, the stainless steel versions I think look better, less blingy or over the top, very much an everyday choice, however being allergic to nickel and as explained in my previous threads unable to wear on an everyday basis.
I will work on some of your great suggestions, and in the meantime contact Rolex regarding, I will get back in touch once they have replied.
If there are any others out there unfortunate enough to be allergic to their beautiful new rolex I would dearly love to hear of how they are coping and what they use to mitigate the problem.

I returned mine.... I have a great AD that was understanding. I threw them some cash for their help as a suggested "restocking fee". Im now looking vintage.

Prior to 1988 used 304L SS, so im looking for a few birth year pieces.

Try talking it through with the AD you bought it from. I think the thread was closed as many offered possible solutions and their opinion and it seemed you weren't interested in exploring those avenues.

That correct to the OP you question was completely answered just cannot see any point in starting another thread until you get something from Rolex if you do then post.
