The bling-factor on this GMT is second to none

rolex.watchprosite.com/show-forumpost/fi-732/pi-2419591/ti-405051/s-0/

...weighing in at a cool 3,915,000 Swedish crowns I might add.

rmcarlton · 14 August 2009, 02:53 PM

Wow!

abigsecret · 14 August 2009, 02:54 PM

How do you read the GMT on that bezel??

p.s. That's US$546,000.00!!

djhiram · 14 August 2009, 02:55 PM

I'd be afraid to bump into a corner with that thing on....Nevermind the need for extra insurance

hotfiber · 14 August 2009, 02:58 PM

I guess functionality's not a concern here.

blackjacker2 · 14 August 2009, 02:58 PM

great pictures - thanks for sharing

MortgageGuy · 14 August 2009, 02:59 PM

Wonder when we will see one of these on the "For Sale" forum here?

:ro fl:

deserted · 14 August 2009, 03:03 PM

Truthfully that's to much bling and the design is awful! ROLEX really needs to invest in a serious artist for their watch designs , all of the regular ROLEX pictures on the forum looks nice but it looks so blinged out until it looks phony.

scottkit · 14 August 2009, 03:08 PM

I think the Wynn in Vegas has one. Could be wrong.

Yume-sama · 14 August 2009, 03:11 PM

Well, nothing new... but always interesting to see more pictures of it!

It is definitely over the top gaudy to the point it is almost cool.

Of the 10 made I believe 8 of them found their way to the Middle East.

How embarrassing it would be to show up to your monthly Sheikh meeting and everyone else has the same watch...

hotfiber · 14 August 2009, 03:17 PM

It's gaudy not to mention unreadable

A sports watch ought to be plain. Liberace probably wouldn't agree...

harvey · 14 August 2009, 03:21 PM

yeh its pretty bling... you have to see it to believe... it is better than in pics...

heres me wearing one... http://rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=40616

deserted · 14 August 2009, 03:26 PM

Thanks for showing the forum those pics , but i have issues with ROLEX design of thier watches that they call custom.

Who do they have making those terrible patterns on thier custom pieces

Renato watches would blow ROLEX out the water in terms of design , not movement , but i do know that ROLEX makes good timepieces and uses the best quality metals known to man but in terms of design there are some heavy hitters out there that make ROLEX look very bad.

scottkit · 14 August 2009, 03:28 PM

Pretty sure I saw one at the Wynn in June. Wow.

weizhen77 · 14 August 2009, 03:37 PM

Geez... gonna need a pair of sunglasses to read the time

You keep stating this as if it were a fact. It is only your opinion of course.

Why do you keep uppercasing the word Rolex?

Omega_Precision · 14 August 2009, 04:14 PM

It's over the top but I think that is what makes it Ice Cold cooooool

Watchdog · 14 August 2009, 04:21 PM

Need your help, guys!

Been debating for a while now between this model and the SS Air King. They both wear about the same, and they both are conservative, not likely to attract much attention.

Which one would you buy?

This will be my first Rolex.

Thanks.

Brushpup · 14 August 2009, 11:30 PM

Two of these today...........hmm. Must be in the air for some reason......

That would be pretty funny if that happened! Esp since they are all already dressed the same way as well!

I once tried on a Breitling that was all ICED out, at first glance it is quite gaudy, but once on the wrist you can feel the POWER of the ICE!

Maybe once I launch a newly modified version of FaceBook or MySpace I will buy one of these limited Rolex's

shandy · 15 August 2009, 03:14 PM
