Im guessing this is for hours, minutes and seconds? How do I activate these? if i unscrew the two knobs on the top and bottom and press them, i can get the "30" dial to move, and the other button I can get the "12" dial to move... I cant get the second to move and Im not sure what purpose these have. Anyone?


Hi was there not an instruction book with the Daytona ?

I trade US financial markets live. My watch is the Explorer II Polar 42mm.

Since I live on the West coast and the markets I trade are all on the East side of the continent, my Explorer II keeps me nicely on track with Eastern time.

I spend a lot of time in the mountains and at sea... so the ruggedness and water-tightness of my Rolex is indispensable.

26 years old, budding lawyer. My first watch from the Rolex family was a Tudor BBR.

I aspire to be that guy with one great watch he keeps for 40 years, so I'm on the lookout for something timeless.

Love this

Amazing to see what jobs people do.

I'm currently hunting down my first Rolex watch, at the age of 33.

Work in car sales.... So I've seen my fair share of horrific watches and odd fake one too.
