I love factory diamond Rolex watches

You're absolutely right, very good eyes, there is no GMT hand in his watch, so it must be an aftermarket on the SUB.

Is this a Franken GMT watch??????

GMT hand is slightly past 2 O’clock - you can see it poking out.

ANYWAY I've found a new love to bust down watches but I think I'd only buy ones that are modeled after factory Rolex pieces or extremely clean watches

Though your watch might look like a Dog's Breakfast to ̶s̶o̶m̶e̶ most folks, I say wear what you like. As long as you like it, who cares. I happen to like the AirKing, and many people hate that watch almost as much, so you do you!

Air king rocks!

No hate, had owned a few watches with diamonds on the dial:





But ended up either flipping the watch or swapping the dial

I love diamonds :) Just wear what you like, that's all that matters.

Diamonds on a Rolex? Ok, I'm in.

The backhanded comments make me love this piece even more

Sounds like OP is confusing "diamonds" with "aftermarket diamonds" here. When it comes to "diamonds" there are some who like them, and some who don't, and some for whom it depends on the watch. But there is a general dislike here for aftermarket modifications, which include many of the diamond dials and bezels that show up on Rolexes.

Excellent eyes, thanks!

Hate is a strong word.

Diamonds are so far away from my personal style and lifestyle that I would never own one.

If I saw one of those in the circles I travel in, It would be a fake

I agree, I'm even surprised this thread is still open. This is clearly a replica of a very exclusive factory rolex watch. Look how bad the centre link and bezel work is compared to the authentic one in the link below. In my view, this goes beyond simply "icing" out your watch, it's creating a replica of a rolex.

I have seen other examples of people doing this with daytonas and making them look like rainbows. Flex and poor taste comes to mind.

Although, diamonds done well can be very tasteful.

They look great on a woman's watch.
