I'm with you on this and think the Red Second Hand is a master stroke of Genius ! Another option is laser engraving number 50 in Red on the ceramic bezel.Final Fantasy any0ne?

I don't think a red second had would be nice on the SD43, just too much red

A red bezel and a red dial would round it off nicely.

The red seconds on my S2000 is a winner, not to mention the way the square marker glides along the inner seconds track!

Bingo.

On newer models they have moved to a round marker... Mistake

Would have thought I'd be a fan, but not sure seeing the latest mock up. Think I'm good with the single line of red text, or the red hand, but not both together.

Definitely don't want any PM'ed pictures, thanks ...I'm a married man.

Honest mistake ...My bad.

Edit: BTW just to be clear, I didn't open your PM and I don't intend to. I'm not sure what might be in there but probably best if played safe

Nice PS skills here but I installed a red seconds hand on my old 14060M and it looked the business! 👍🏽

That really looks good, I just am hesitant for a non authorized watch place to mess with my Rolex. Don't really want to mail way either..
I just with rolex did this from the start.
