Would any of you guys wear this Rolex?

I wouldn't. Belonged to a friend of mine, he wanted to sell it, wasn't easy.
The market for one of these is very small.

Master Piece, Platinum, diamond markers and Bezel, 100% factory Rolex. 39mm.
100% BLING. Didn't look too "masculine" to me.

(Im actually holding this watch and I snapped the pic with my (at the time) iPhone 2G)

I would not. A lot of people here on the Forum love Diamond watches, I would never wear a watch with diamonds on it.

100% real...

Too much bling makes a watch look FAKE

It's not the bling, it's the bracelet. The bracelet looks too feminine, but I've seen people wearing and it does work for certain people.

X2, it's the bracelet that would hold me back as well.

I had the pleasure of having one of these for a few months... pictures do this watch no justice. In person this thing is UNREAL!!! It belonged to my best friend, he gave it to me to sell for him... When he purchased it in 1999 the MSRP was $60,750 back then... also it felt like a small car on my wrist...
