You could be naked and walk down the street wearing only the watch, and no one would notice anything BUT the watch!

Somebody should experiment and test that theory to see what would happen.





NICE WATCH though!! I would be more than happy if I could just try one of those on but you cant even find those in the ADs most of time.

Rolex Masterpiece, very nice, thanks for the photo's.
I think it really suits you.
Personally, I would buy a different watch if I was spending that kind of money, but thats just me. I really like the bling factor, but again not for me.
Now if the standard Day-Date (without the diamonds) went to 40mm, I might be tempted. I think that will happen......one day.

Freddy,
Now that is a Rolex! I like the R.R. but my Cobra GT 500 might have to teach you a lesson or two. All joking aside you are very fortunate. Not too many palm trees in NYC but I know a tree like that in Vegas. Enjoy

Enjoy your watch and wear it in good health but not my cup of tea. I don't like diamonds on watches.

Freddy - I'm kind of glad it's not your watch. It's great to look at, but do you really want to wear that all the time????

If I were going to spend serious money on a Rolex it would be WG Daytona with meteorite dial. And I'd still have $80 K left over to get a platinum DD and anything else I could want !

I'm sorry, IMO diamonds are for women. Way too much bling for me.

That's the exact same watch that P Diddy wore in the film "Made" with Vince Vaughn and John Favreau.

Your mate must be worth a penny or two.

For me, no diamonds in mens jewelry or watches but the WG is nice.

Nice, but way too much bling for me, and I'm not anti-diamond like most here. Just a few are enough, but only on a dress watch.

A hell of a watch, but I wouldn't wear it. I'm not into diamonds. MAYBE a watch with diamond markers, but that's about it.

On the other hand, I AM lovin' that Rolls. Wow. If I had an unlimited supply of money, I would be rocking one of those for sure. It's my favorite car.
At my age all my friends give me a hard time because apparently I'm "a little too young to love sedans so much" but I just think the comfort and luxury of a Rolls, Bentley or Mercedes S500 is REALLY appealing. Trust me, I'd have some pretty sexy sports cars as well, but for day-in, day-out driving, it would be the Rolls all the way.
