Might I suggest you visit a optician as you might have a problem with your eyes or you cannot read plain English English.As it clearly states we have incorporated a double watch winder,just encase some have forgot what watches were intended for the wrists which are the best winders in the world.

Is it safe to crack a serial # in the shower? Should I be concerned if I forget to screw down the code-cracking-crown before I got it wet? Finally, should I be concerned if the letters do not perfectly line up within a few nano millimeters of each other or should I send it in for a service?

If the characters on the roman numeral key look like sticks || rather than II does that make it more valuable?

I say not so fast on judging the sticker. First we need more macro shots to make a full determination.
Second, we need more experts to weigh on on this before you jump in and take all the glory

Now, I am no expert on these, but it looks good to me.

Might not be, but probably is OK. Not sure, but not positive it's faked.

Oh yeah, compare it to the original created by and for sale on TZ for $13,550.

I knew when I saw it it couldn't be real for a measly 9k.

Hmmm....speaking of that, it looks to be pretty good sized. Could it make both my wrists look too small??!!

If anything has to be unscrewed for usage with a coronet or trade mark on it, does it line up precisely in the horizontal position when screwed back in??

This is an ABSOLUTE must - I am not interested if it does not!!!

Hoopla!!

Sorry just like Rolex it will be the all gold version then the TT you will have a long wait.Rolex is expected to bring out a new code system for there watch cases in 2015,but because of inside information we mods and admin team have almost cracked this new random random code.Which can be added to the existing RCC machine with very little cost.

Sorry this machine is allergic to any product called Veraet and is pre programed to self destruct if used.All thats needed is a simple rub over with a damp cloth.

This is probably the funniest thread I've seen here. I'm laughing out loud literally. so funny what we obsess about, don't think any other brand has this obsession. I have no idea what the serial number/letter is on my Omega. Only with a Rolex do people state the serial letter in an intro, lol.

You're a riot Padi.
