You mean that plastic thingy is supposed to come off?!!

Lol-x · 30 April 2010, 02:40 PM

Darn Rolex not like they used to be done gone making watches out of plastic these days, no wonder parts fall off of them.

Mind you that plastic does get a might bit unhygenic after several minutes of quite vigerous activity

You've just made me realize that my AD did not sell me a complete daytona because I didn't get the bezel protector. Darnit!

I thought it was the caseback...

SLS · 30 April 2010, 04:24 PM

Well if your watch doesn't wear protection...it's opening itself up for a plethora of diseases!

If you let it go too long, the next thing you will know is that you will have a nasty rash on you wrist!

Lol-x · 30 April 2010, 07:16 PM

Psmith · 30 April 2010, 07:30 PM

My 'Daytona LV' is almost entirely plastic... although I was assured that the diamonds are real...

No problem, just ask Oscar. He should have plenty by this time. He never sends any away

Dferg10 · 1 May 2010, 01:05 AM

Mine kept falling off too, but a couple of drops of krazy glue did the trick. I also went ahead and put loctite on the cap threads so they will stay nice and snug too... :)

Mrdi · 1 May 2010, 01:07 AM

I want the green one !!

BASSETHOUNDS · 1 May 2010, 01:55 AM

Sorry to hear that Steve , Well now that it is no longer complete I'm sure you no longer want to keep it .

Check with my buddy Oscar. Rumor has it he collects those things.

franksremote · 1 May 2010, 02:48 AM

No worries, you can acquire another bezel protector on Ebay, they're to be had for a measly $34 - $52 before shipping.

I'm not very happy

You should check in the garbage can by your desk. You might also find a pen and notepad in there too.

SDDS · 1 May 2010, 07:02 AM

I'm sorry did that annoy you?

Please accept my apologies, it was an attempt at humour, I'm sorry if it was not to your liking.

robsteve · 1 May 2010, 02:35 PM

No, it didn't annoy me, but just brought back memories of a few threads that were not the finest hours of this forum.

Oh, I'm sorry I don't know what you are referring to precisely.

I'm terribly sorry for asking but what are you referring to and why are you raising it here and now?

Commandment no 10.

Stevo forgive him for he knows not what he's done.
