What is best a custom Rolex or a Rolex that is stuck in custom?

Buy a professional camera and you´re a professional
photographer, buy a flute and you own a flute.

I get to see it every once in a while. The guy I sold it to (Fellow TRFer) is a customer of mine, and stops by my shop wearing it every now and then.

I would live to add the green date wheel to ny GMTII C. But I really want to buy another dial and have diamonds added to the hour markers. Keep the original for when it needs service

Minor mod, Rolex TT insert, changed out the YG pearl, and added an aftermarket glidelock for daily comfort :-)
