"Stone, Please don't buy her a fake rolex....... (The one in the photo you posted isn't authentic :-P)"

needed a picture for an example. btw, why is that pic a fake? i only see one possibility but i an not sure about when they began doing something. the pink mop should only come with the scribing around the inside of the outer edge of the crystal. also i have never owned a diamond bezel so i am not sure if they were round or princess. teach me something since you apparently know something i dont.

hers is an 03 "F" serial number with an oyster band. i had the face changed from the white mother or pearl face with no diamonds to the pink mop with diamonds. it also was originally a jubilee band and i changed that also. no worries about the fake. i kept the original face and band so if i sell it i can change it back to the original format.

To be 'authentic' it has to be in a form that rolex would sell it....

The watch in the photo isn't 'authentic' because diamond bezels aren't available on steel (you can tell by the bracelet) watches (only solid rose/white/yellow gold or platinum)....
T-Swiss Made-T was for dials back when Tridium was used on the dial, and that one isn't.... The bezel wasn't made by Rolex (I can tell by how the diamonds are set) nor did Rolex make the dial.


I am in no way shape or form attempting to be a bitch.... But Rolex watches aren't something that you just switch around with aftermarket parts and customize. The serial is linked only to the original parts, not any portion that is changed (and Rolex won't touch it with aftermarket parts on it).
It's the equivalent to buying a Mercedes, then asking Toyota, Mazda & Saturn to create you a sunroof, spoiler and Grill to go on it.

im just sayin

12/14/2008 9:25:46 PM

12/14/2008 9:26:41 PM

well i mean it is now

but her first post was very bitch like

12/14/2008 9:27:55 PM

Maybe you just read it wrong - That most certainly was not how it was intended....

Carry on.....

12/14/2008 9:29:24 PM

originality is not my big concern. finding one like i wanted that was not 5K was the biggest issue. i kept the original dial and band so if i do sell it i would be able to sell it in its original state.

why are rolex's not something you switch around? i wear my daytona with a leather band more than the oyster band. i never thought that to be a no no.

i personally would never pay for a new one that is mop with diamonds. i would never send it back to rolex to be serviced as i have a local rolex dealer who services on site. i would also say your analogy is not a good example. nor would i use the term "fake" like you originally did. it is not "authentic" in the fact of being how the factory shipped it, i agree, but that does not make it "fake".

i did not think about stainless not coming with a diamond bezel. that is true, white gold or platinum would be the only way.

if she didnt use the word "fake" i prolly wouldnt have cared

it made her seem pretentious moreso than someone who was willing to impart her personal knowledge

Necklace and Celine Dion tickets.

Forgive me if the word 'fake' comes across as too strong - to Rolex (which is who I have to work with daily) anything that is not an original Rolex part, is unauthentic, or anyway you want to politely dress the word up....

I can't imagine putting a strap on a Daytona - but again... what you visually find pleasing, verses what Rolex produces are two different things. Why would you want to modify one of the most sought after watches in the USA?
Rolex produces watches within certain (very strict) criteria with very little variation, so they can tell what you're wearing from 10 feet away, and don't have to hold it in your hands to tell what it is. It's just the way they, as a company, do business.

If that is of no concern to you, then it really doesn't matter what you and your watchmaker decide to do with it from there.

PM me - and I'll happily answer anything you'd like to know.....

..........But for now - Back to topic

Awww. Women who hate video games are FTL in my opinion.

12/14/2008 10:12:47 PM

this is the first year in over a decade that I don't have a SO at Christmas. So instead of spending the $500-$1000 that I usually spend on my SO for Christmas, I am buying myself a PS3 and Rock Band with all the instruments.

[Edited on December 14, 2008 at 10:13 PM. Reason : a]

12/14/2008 10:13:10 PM

She doesn't hate video games. She loves rock band and wants a Wii. But that still doesn't trump the fact that she really wants all the other things I'm getting her.

word. i hope my wife gives me a ps3

12/14/2008 10:17:06 PM

Oh, and I am paying off my Mom's car.

12/14/2008 10:20:51 PM

^ Aww! That's sweet! I've never thought about doing something like that, but then again, I've never had the funds to even fathom doing something like that.

And I don't have to worry about spending money on the Mr. He's gonna be in AL on Christmas day and then back home (in another state) for his bday this month. *sigh*

^ just get him a 40 of Old English and a carton of Newports. He'll be pumped.

But for real. Yeah, the car payment is the only bill my mom has left after my dad died. She kept his car and sold hers to pay off some other bills. It has about $3k left on it for payoff. I inherited about $3200, so that is what I am using it for. I gotta take care of Moms. I am on a Karma kick lately, and so far it has been paying off.

12/14/2008 10:59:20 PM

^ Aw...I'm all for that too! I definitely dig a guy that thinks like that. Good look.


And why you say get him some OE and a carton of Newports?!? Is it because he's black!?!? LOL J/K He doesn't smoke thankfully!!

12/14/2008 11:00:53 PM

the way I see it, it's not my money it was my Dad's. And my pops would want me to make sure my Mom is taken care of. So what better way to spend it?

12/14/2008 11:03:07 PM

i have no idea. i was going to get a foosball table (used) off of like CL or something but they don't have any room in their house for it so i'm stuck.

For this Christmas, she gets the opportunity to find another SO.

I expect she's getting the same thing for me, which is cool since that's what I really want for xmas.

12/15/2008 6:09:08 PM

^ now THAT is a quality post right there

12/15/2008 6:10:42 PM

the one idea he has given me is out of stock due to importation restrictions




so if anyone has any idea where to find some Castle Lager............i would appreciate a heads up

12/15/2008 6:43:31 PM

this thread has reminded me that i need to start paying attention when she says she wants things. i have no effing idea.

12/15/2008 6:47:43 PM

^ no you don't. if you listen to things like that, she will expect you to listen all the time. Just keep doing what you are doing, and buy her a vacuum cleaner or something.
