I was sure I wanted one of these until I saw the price tag - $27k!!!

ExplorerChris · 7 July 2014, 05:06 AM

Lol not for the faint of heart is it

dazzpowder · 7 July 2014, 05:15 AM

Who makes that, is that a ceramic bezel?

kelly56 · 7 July 2014, 05:20 AM

Yes, limited edition from Blaken.

Wesley Crusher · 7 July 2014, 05:31 AM

That looks horrible.

locutus49 · 7 July 2014, 05:33 AM

I'll pass.

Welshwatchman · 7 July 2014, 05:35 AM

I can't see that that's anything other than a fake insert.

I also see a fake dial.

fabio1965 · 7 July 2014, 05:39 AM

I don't like !

Rolexpharm · 7 July 2014, 05:41 AM

I actually wouldn't mind a ceramic bezel like the Platona or the Rose gold version

Baselman · 7 July 2014, 06:12 AM

if you want that look I bet you can get it for a 50 dollar bill all day long

RolexJNJ · 7 July 2014, 06:16 AM

Cool idea, but certainly not worth $27K!

Nice white gold territory could do much better for that price

dysondiver · 7 July 2014, 06:26 AM

like the look , but not 27ks worth of like

beshannon · 7 July 2014, 06:41 AM

Nice Invicta!

dazzpowder · 7 July 2014, 07:03 AM

Looking at it again I can see its nothing like the ceramic bezel, looks like one of the aftermarket Bakelite things

How'd they justify that price?

Looks too fake.

soundserious · 7 July 2014, 08:09 AM

wow, just...wow

Nycturbovr6 · 7 July 2014, 01:53 PM

No thank you

GradyPhilpott · 7 July 2014, 01:58 PM

I can read it, so I like it.

Now, as to parting with $27k for it, hmmmmmmmmmmm, I don't think so.

Alfredo. · 7 July 2014, 04:21 PM

Am I the only one who likes this??

I think the idea is great, but I agree that for that price you can buy something much better.

harrjaso · 7 July 2014, 06:55 PM

Seen that one, I agree. Honestly when I saw it I thought it looked like a replica. Bamford makes a DSSD that is sick. It's the only modified Rolex I could see myself getting right now. If it was 15k maybe but $24k, nope. I'll try to find it and link.

Would have loved this when I was in the Army

If I were ever going to go for a watch with a modification, it would need to be much more subtle…

Muzz · 7 July 2014, 08:35 PM

You can go on EBay and buy the parts for 700 bucks total and put it on your own Daytona if that was something you wanted to do. Once the novelty wore off revert back to original without the ridiculous sting.

But hey, that's just one opinion.
