Never knew and always wondered because you only ever see a pic of that bracelet every so often on the forum. I really like it.

Its a really nice bracelet especially because it is 20mm instead of the traditional 18mm the president and date-just models have but due to it being all high-polished it scratches often

Not my cup of tea not a fan of precious metal or diamond watches even if I was filthy rich.And today most of the Rolex lineup is based on the cal3135 with or without complications so you pay a quite high price for the metal and stones.

That is a guy who actually is "ultra rich". SS seems to work fine for him

If I was filthy rich, I'd still wear SS but I'd go vintage and rare. Although I would have a plain platinum DD (no diamonds) in the collection too just because I can.

Get me a fluted bezel on that one and I'll like it.

If I was filthy rich I would have weekly Rolex giveaways on TRF, and source myself one these in mint condition with box and papers.....

If we are talking about ultimate over-the-top timepiece regardless of price, I'd probably take a Harry Winston Opus Eleven, seen here: http://www.harrywinston.com/store/ti...roducts/opus11
I'm sure I'll get flogged by the community here, but there is no arguing that that is one AMAZING timepiece... |

Safely assuming ultra Rich to be a billionaire.
I'd probably be too busy "looking after business" to be bothered with watches. I'd go the way of the Slim probably and wear something gifted by one of my middle managers looking to brown nose the CEO. ... or a Patek 5140 J, such a wonderful watch. You don't even have to be slightly rich to afford one of those though.

Well if I were ultra rich I wouldn't wear a nice watch. I'd have 4 men with me at all times, each one responsible for shouting out one digit of the time. And a woman who says AM or PM at the end, and has a latte machine on a pushcart. They would all wear Pateks synced each morning to an Atomic G Shock, that I would wear, to make sure they're correct, and the Pateks are keeping good time.
