Just curious, what product you guys used to polish your Rolex bracelet & how often you polish it? Currently I'm using this product from US known as Cape Cod polishing cloth. For me generally I will just leave the scratches on the time piece as I believe it will signify my character, then if it longer shine or too much scratches then I will start polishing it.

hmmm some say never polish anything of value, only old seiko nod.gif

I agreed. By right it really shouldn't be polish unless the scratches is very obvious. Minor scratches I do understand that is it inevitable and scratches also adding character of yourself to the watches. But I just want my watch to look shine, therefore, I would just do a DIY minor polishing once a year. After 5 years, I will sent it for servicing & it will come back like brand new.

yes... i am also using cape cod to polish my rolex watches but don't do it too often as the steel and gold will become thinner everytime u polished it

afaik cape cod shouldn't be used with brushed steel, only on polished steel

so depending on which rolex bracelet you have, might wanna switch it up

Was just casually browsing through a store when i stumbled upon a Black Bay V1 (Blue Colour) with bracelet going for RM 8,900. Seems like a pretty good deal but i really like the black one a lot more.

Still worth picking up a V1 at this price?

Yes it is reusable until the cloth is out of solution. Another way is you can also cut it into small pcs.

Noted, checked on lazada, rm3x per package...

Awesome watch! I also bought mine before price hike. I was considering this model BLNR & LN, eventually I prefer the classic LN version.

How much is a new LN now? Next target.

I'm quite lucky as I bought my GMT2 LN for around RM29k+ brand new at Cortina Rolex b0utique just few days before the 6% increment.

Nice catch there bro.

What do u think about the blnr though? Im still undecided. Hope the shop can keep for me. Price diff quite alot between LN n BLNR

Im slanting towards the LN due to the price difference

How much you bought it?

I was quoted with around RM35k+ after extra discount given by the manager. That was before the 6% increased. Eventually I opt for the LN full black bezel instead.
*
you must be a very special customer to be able to get RM35K. Got mine at RM36.5K and that was only after paying in cash at KLIA w/o gst! They kept saying that the MYR dropped alot that's why the price is what it is. Bought mine in January when the ringgit was at it's lowest.

Yup..the Batman is way more expensive..everything is the same between the LN & BLNR..the only difference is the bezel colour, GMT hand & the GMT Master II colour stamping on the dial...

Well..the Batman will hold a slightly better value but you have to pay extra for it...but for me I prefer the LN version as nothing beat the classic full black bezel..I would advise you to get a brand new LN instead of 2nd hand especially if this is your 1st Rolex...
*

end of the day, after several days, decided not going for the GMT
Lol. It feels a bit too similar to the submariner and speedy pro which i already have.

And no...im not one for wearing a Rolex when im travelling either, so that sort of moot the practical purpose of the GMT.

Thanks for your feedback though. Appreciate it.

guys, anyone ever check with RSC Malaysia if they can re-issue the warranty card / paper after they verify the watch?
