Definitely not a Rolex. The screws give it away.

Gotta say, as someone who has quite a lot of ink, it’s really not very good.
That said, it’s not THIS bad

Lugs look bent...possibly polished.

Was going to say something similar.

The conceit is good, imho. The execution is poor.

When well done, watch (movement) tattoos look awesome.

Great podcast indeed. The "History of Rolex" episode with Carl Ruiz was one of the best so far.

Yikes!!! What on earth would compel someone to do something like that ?! And to think it was a good idea once it’s done...couldn’t imagine getting that and looking at it once it’s all done and say, “yep, looks damn good Bubba!”

Let’s see some watch ink that actually looks good...is there even one example that doesn’t look like a blind crackhead was the tattoo artist?
