The Ultimate Stealth Rolex
A couple of days ago I shared an image of my Rolex Explorer I 14270 fitted with a Seiko bezel protector. Inspired by the "enthusiastic" responses I received on TRF, I decided to take the look one step further. Added to the combination now is a Citizen-style rubber dive strap. In my opinion, this really completes the look.

SHOCKING! That is the ultimate stealth timepiece, the only thing identifiable is the 3,6, & 9

It is different enough to qualify as a non-DLC/PVD secret cloaking device.
A NATO would be another strap option worth trying, too.

Looks more heavily disguised than stealth!
Definitely wouldn't pick it as a Rolex from afar. Enjoy! |

The strap is fine. The protector is the worst thing in the universe!

Reminds me of how well this protective add-on "enhances" the aesthetics of this Ferrari:

Funny because when I read the title the first thing that came to mind was the Explorer.
