Is that genuine? The markers look miniscule.
My AD has the brown YG GMTII and it wins the award for the fugliest non-blinged out Rolex sports watch. If the price was right, I would consider it. It's not a big deal to change the bezel and the dial. Last edited by Atomic; 3 December 2005 at 03:41 AM.. |

Hi JJ
Wishing you the best for the Season. In answer to your question YES. The photo does not do it justice, I have seen one of these in the flesh so to speak, and they look scrummy

If I could change the bracelet,bezel,markers,dial, I might consider it.
In other words a simple NO.

Wrong bracelet, wrong bezel, and wrong dial for my taste. Not to mention wrong sports model. I'm sure it's a great watch, if you are into that sort of style. I'll stick with the oyster.

I've seen one of those in an AD and IMO it looks pretty bad. But if the price was right you never know...........

Not a big fan of the "rusty" looking dial... of course you would never have to worry about being mugged for this thing on your wrist!
