QUOTE(GingerNinja @ Jan 14 2015, 11:45 PM) Damnn. too hard to choose between these choices. So hard to decide as it will be my 21st birthday gift for myself. Something that makes a remembrance for it. You will most definitely not go wrong with Submariner and DJ. While the entire Rolex lineup is iconic, these 2 are without a doubt the foundation of Rolex.

QUOTE(JPSB @ Mar 1 2015, 09:39 PM) hope Tudor can be discussed here since is related one way or another with ROLEX. I agree. What do you think TS? Afterall Tudor is sold at Rolex outlets as well. I really do find the Black Bay charming. More so than modern Sub. Blasphemy I know.

 Not my style of watches, but man that movement is in-house! Tudor is going to give a serious run for the money now.

QUOTE(Spoodo @ Mar 19 2015, 12:28 PM) And they also announced a Blue dial/bezel Pelagos with their new in house movement, and the Black Pelagos will also be updated with the new movements! With no price increase! Will it be COSC? Previous buyers butt hurt lo. Used ETA Pelagos harga affected or go up?

QUOTE(Everdying @ Mar 19 2015, 01:07 PM) why no one mentions the propietary lugs?  Er, ew? Not to my taste. Macam sports watch, but its not as hardcore as diving. So to me a bit not here nor there.

Pelagos on dial is unnecessary. That's like tattooing your name on your forehead.
Rotor self winding should be removed as well.

QUOTE(Everdying @ Mar 19 2015, 03:58 PM) looks like no one also noticed the 2015 pelagos has lost the lume at 3. I didn't. I felt it looked more balanced. The date window seems bigger, to take the place of the lume I suppose. Pelagos doesn't appeal to me. The Black Bay, mm. It's all about the bay bout the bay.

That's a very deep scratch. How did you not notice it when buying? Granted buying a Rolex isn't like buying a bag of oranges.

QUOTE(Gen-X @ Jul 9 2015, 10:49 PM) I did not know LYN got a thread on Rolex watches. I was gooling to find out price of second hand Rolex Sky Dweller to check what's the resale value like and this thread was listed in page 2 of the search! Anyway, I can't seem to find any current pre-owned Sky Dweller prices. You guys have any idea on the Sky Dweller resale value? » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « And here is my contribution to this thread - photo of my Rolex GMT Master Blue Red Pepsi and my son's Blue Black Batman with the protective plastic still on the bezel (managed to secure it in KL just before GST implemented). I have also posted more photos at one of my blogs (links below) and even articles relating to my hunt for my son's Rolex GMT Master II and my new Limited Edition Bell & Ross at my main blog (you will find the relevant links in the posts below): Click here to my blog to see more photos of my GMT Pepsi and my son's GMT Master II Batman.Click here to my blog to see my new Bell & Ross Limited Edition GMT (only 50 pieces on earth) side by side with my Rolex GMT Master Pepsi and GMT Master II Batman.Eh wanna share pic here no need watermark until like that la ayyy hard to see the BLNR. What made you choose the BLNR over the black one?

QUOTE(GOLILA @ Jul 13 2015, 12:05 AM) i just bought gmt master ii black color 1 week,and today rolex ad told me gmt master ii black blue restock next week,if i sell the gmt master ii ,can sell it how much? What's wrong with black? The BLNR isn't as great in person than in photos. I don't think its worthwhile taking the hit just for the colour. Go see the BLNR first la. I was really in love with BLNR, but in person side by side, easily the black one trumps it IMO. Less flashy, subtle, and the green GMT hand is just nice and balanced.

At the rate MYR is going, I think prices will be revised soon. Better grab em now.

QUOTE(r3kahsttub @ Aug 26 2015, 04:48 PM) Sumo? I feel it is much fatter. And it doesn't wear anywhere as nice as the Sub. And I have to agree to an extent, that the crown can be "blinding". Other people react differently to you. Like when I went in to ADs with the Hulk, super layan and willing to take out some pieces that are clearly (way) out of my budget to look see. Sub ok ok. If I go in with my speedy, little attention (not that this is an issue for me). If you went in rocking a Hublot they probably bring the whisky out. Lol.

Took a taxi from Shenzhen border to HK Wanchai. Taxi driver rocking an Explorer II. Bought some food @ HKIA, cashier rocking Submariner no-date.
Yup, feel pretty good about my vintage 16014.

QUOTE(Ask_Yip @ Mar 6 2016, 02:43 PM) bro u want cheaper option, try vintage or 2nd hand  Actually, I like vintage over a new piece simply because it has character.. because as much money that you have, you can't walk into a Rolex boutique and buy a vintage Rolex, like one with a plastic crystal, or the Sub reds, cause they don't make it anymore. These days, Rolex is such a mass produced luxury good, kinda loses some of the luster around it. I'm more attracted to a Sub red, rather than the latest Sub with ceramic bezel.

QUOTE(Apple_DarreN @ Mar 10 2016, 04:39 PM) Here's one for sale @ MWF http://www.malaysiawatchforum.com/index.php?topic=14098.0Previously there was a Double Red Seadweller @ Mudah for sale, about 130k if not mistaken. The ad has been taken down But no thanks. The diver I want is Fifty Fathoms, not the Sub. Datejust > Sub. Hell, I'd choose a GMT Master II over a Sub.
