That watch is so.... ugghhh!!!

Remember people, don't add a diamond bezel to your steel or two tone Datejust, because that would be very tacky and RSC will remove it since they don't tolerate any tacky upgrades to their watches.

I've tried that one on my wist at Wynn's Rolex boutique, it is way too fancy, guess you gonna need this to match with that hot stuff.

triplelake · 3 November 2007, 09:56 AM

I wouldn't put it on my wrist

To quote Spinal Tap's manager, "it looks like an Austrailans worst nightmare." Sugar daddy from 42nd and Time Sq, won't put this on!

Is this the Halloween special edition?

Spark · 3 November 2007, 07:23 PM

I spoke to a Rolex service tech about the Leopard daytona and he felt the same way as most of us WHY??
We decided it was designed during the Design office Christmas party.
Apparently they have sold quite a few though, which is quite worrying.
It does prove the old saying a fool and his money are easily parted though

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

This saying first appeared in the 3rd century BC in Greek. It didn't appear in its current form in print until the 19th century, but in the meantime there were various written forms that expressed much the same thought. In 1588, the English dramatist John Lyly, in his Euphues and his England, wrote:

"...as neere is Fancie to Beautie, as the pricke to the Rose, as the stalke to the rynde, as the earth to the roote."

Shakespeare expressed a similar sentiment in Love's Labours Lost, 1588:

Good Lord Boyet, my beauty, though but mean,
Needs not the painted flourish of your praise:
Beauty is bought by judgement of the eye,
Not utter'd by base sale of chapmen's tongues

Benjamin Franklin, in Poor Richard's Almanack, 1741, wrote:

Beauty, like supreme dominion
Is but supported by opinion

David Hume's Essays, Moral and Political, 1742, include:

"Beauty in things exists merely in the mind which contemplates them."

The person who is widely credited with coining the saying in its current form is Margaret Wolfe Hungerford (née Hamilton), who wrote many books, often under the pseudonym of 'The Duchess'. In Molly Bawn, 1878, there's the line "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder", which is the earliest citation of it that I can find in print.

Lose that awful strap - replace it with an original solid gold Daytona bracelet.

Lose that stupid dial - replace it with an ivory coloured one.....and I think we have a winner. A lot of bling....but a very expensive winner nevertheless!
