Bastardizing the SeaDweller

This is equivalent to taking the teeth out of a great white shark....or the claws out of a grizzly bear .... There should be a warrant issued for his arrest ...

I can see dressing-up a DJ with diamonds if that is your thing, but that is truly just hideous.

Amazingly, on the new Rolex site they showcase a GMT with a jeweled bezel - so Rolex sells a GMT watch which doesn't tell you what the 2nd time zone is

My friend would love it....He blinged out the bezel on his GMT Master II - I must say I've never seen an uglier watch (and without function)

It's missing something.


Maybe some diamonds on the lugs would help.

Also on the hour indices.

Take it one step further, Dennis... Don't bother to bring it back; just leave it at 4000 feet.

There's no reason to "Bead dazzle" a watch like that. Email him and ask if the ceramic is for sale! Think fast guys!
