NATO? How about Ribbons?
This is how they do it in Milan:

On another Rolex Related trend, All Gold and Two Tone watches are "super HOT HOT HOT trendy" right now.



At an Art Basel show here in Miami, I saw a ton of Day Dates and DJs on wrists.

Tasteless!!! I am also tired of all the ladies wearing those cheap Michael Kors gold watches pretending they have a Rolex on. Their latest model includes a Daytona look-alike. n:
