Something a little different. Notched older Rolex strap leather ends to accommodate the existing clasp without having to take the clasp apart.

Out in front of the service center? I thought I caught someone taking a wrist shot on my way to magnolia. Didn’t realize it was a 16520!

The more I see the new rose gold sundust dial on OF the more I think it would make a great addition and complement my current pair. Either that or a white dial 16520 Zenith, decisions…decisions.

I had some time to play with the watches today. Would be kind of cool if they sold the Daytona native with a jubilee.

They are genuine Rolex jubilee bracelets from my GMT’s. Just need to use different pins as the hole in the jubilee bracelet is more narrow than the oyster.

I’m not sure I understand your question. These are the native endlinks that come on the jubilee.

Looks like you wear them all equally. Each has multiple scratches. That’s how you enjoy your watches. One is a zenith right?

finally took the plunge on a 116500LN (tried the 12 series, didnt like it as much and the heart wants what the heart wants). picked up a 2018 that was unworn and fully stickered....was very nice removing all the stickers myself and knowing all the scratches and dings will be all mine.

Picked up Saturday. Wondering how long the honeymoon phase is going to last. I’m guessing multiple years!
