Hologram stickers in reality useless bit of paper,and of know real importance IMO.I sometimes wish Rolex would do away with them, along with date letters,then perhaps we could then get some serious Rolex questions.

Yeah, after I peel the Hologram off, it is a pain to scrub the residue off. Found out that toothpast and a toothbruch work pretty well though to get the residue off.

The hologram is cool but are there any other watches out there where the owners make such a fuss over a sticker?

Would be cool to know other WIS get this excited about such trivial things with other watches too.

I have not removed the plastic sticker covering the hologram on my new TT Blue Sub. I bought this watch about 2 weeks ago and want to preserve the hologram as long as possible. Will this work, or will it damage the hologram from any oil or sweat etc?

Forget about it, Tim. Your sweat and normal wear and tear will eventually take its toll.

Well, I took off my hologram after a few hours of wearing my new watch.

Felt a little silly with a sticker on the back of a watch, but that is just me.
