Hello guys,

Which year Rolex watches start to have inner logo rim?
I was looking a few images of anniversary submariner green, it doesn't seem to have inner logo rim. It is not that old as well. Wonder which year of production they start to use it. Does all models equip with logo rim at the same time?

Are you a fan? I do love the little touch. I don't think it is a deal breaker after vintage pieces too.

It was around 2004 Serial F/D on some models the Rolex Rolex Rolex started on the Rehaut ring.Myself not a fan just once the word Rolex on the dial is good enough for me.And with today's lupe mania Rolex watches have become to some little more than alignment points, as all this branding must line up perfectly at the 12 marker if it is supposed to line up with anything.

It's convenient to check SN w/o removing the bracelet.

That I would agree on but there is no need of the Rolex Rolex Rolex.

I only just realised it had (and looked at) the engraving on my M series Daytona

It's not that noticable, unless you look for it

Atomant · 25 July 2012, 03:22 AM

I'm ok with or without.

gwalker · 25 July 2012, 03:23 AM

I dot care either way. You don't notice it. It's much easier to check the SN. Both my Rolexes have it so I guess I like it. The one I had prior didn't but as I said it doesn't matter. I don't notice it.

datejust24 · 25 July 2012, 03:24 AM

not a fan...its just a little overkill...convenient for checking serials yes, but I dont mind taking off the bracelet to do the same thing...to each his own.

BCNJ · 25 July 2012, 03:24 AM

not a prob for me

bewithabob · 25 July 2012, 03:27 AM

I like having an easy view of the serial number, but otherwise, with or without ROLEX on the rehaut is ok either way.

slcbbrown · 25 July 2012, 03:33 AM

Not a fan, but it isn't a big deal.

Silvio Mosiello · 25 July 2012, 03:45 AM

Convenient for the SN. Outside of that its whatever imho.

ecsub44 · 25 July 2012, 03:55 AM

HL65 · 25 July 2012, 03:58 AM

Exactly!! I like the easy serial # read - no bracelet removal.

mjclark32 · 25 July 2012, 04:16 AM
