I guess to some people every Rolex is "nice" and they will buy it just for the sake of having a Rolex.

OUCH!
Didn't your mom ever tell you if you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all??? Heck, its a nice looking unique AK.

The AK is FAR from my favorite Rolex BUT this is my favorite AK.

No offense, and I'll probably draw a lot of ire for this comment, but looking at your repertoire of watches, I can't say that it is better looking than all of them, but it sure has your Platinum Yacht Master beat.

I, along with the majority of respondents in this post, happen to think it is a sharp looking watch.

As others have said, why add this kind of negativity in a post? If you don't like the watch, move on.

My post was not aimed at the AK that the OP bought. It's Rolex in general. The Plat YM just happens to be my favorite among my Rolex right now and you don't seem to like it, as you can see, it's a big YMMV. There are some models that I will not wear even if given to me for free, I will not wear a Rolex just for the sake of wearing a Rolex.
