Was thinking the same thing. I'm not a huge fan of the new ceramic bezels, but I could wear this one. For some reason, the lack of the cyclops makes the proportions more pleasing.

Great looking watch - enjoy!

I'm getting weak and starting to accept those lugs....

something is wrong with picture on #1 post. The word "Offically Certified" is kinda off in my opinion. Someone please correct me if i'm wrong

I think you guys are right, there isn't a space between OFFICIALLY and CERTIFIED. The watch looks suspect. OP, where did you purchase the watch from, you might have a fake.

Edit: Upon further inspection of the OP's photo, the watch is clearly a fake. It has a very obvious laser etched crown, whereas a genuine Rolex crystal has a laser etched crown that is very difficult to see except under magnification.

This is a close up of the dial on my 114060.

I also believe it to be a fake. I think this version is available for about $350 or so. Had me fooled until I read honeybears post.
