andy5productions Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi Everyone, Well I have finally purchased an Iced Out Rolex that can be worn right-out-of-the-box instead of having one custom-made for me from a well known Jeweler. I live in Vegas so almost everything has to be loud (watches, clothes, jewelry, cars, etc.). I want to see what everyone thinks about my new addition to my ever growing watch collection. I know some of you won't like it but try to keep the low ball comments out. Ok. Also, I thought i post pics of my watch vs. genuine for comparison. I just posted the MB just for fun!

HaydenM Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 A tool watch with diamonds seems absolutely ridiculous to me, not to mention downright hideous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightwatch Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Probably in Vegas it will be a total success. Got less functional as a GMT so. No the Merc, its much too sober - it needs the roof chopped off and some more bling:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Under the right conditions and lighting, it could appear nice to look at. But to quote a movie line "what happens in Vegas should stay in Vegas". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imajedi Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 As far as iced out watches go, I think it's the best looking one I've seen. Nice choice. Will work perfectly in Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martijnp Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 It's a cool fact that you want to share your watch over her. But bling bling is not the taste of most members here.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomhorn Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi Everyone, Well I have finally purchased an Iced Out Rolex that can be worn right-out-of-the-box instead of having one custom-made for me from a well known Jeweler. I live in Vegas so almost everything has to be loud (watches, clothes, jewelry, cars, etc.). I want to see what everyone thinks about my new addition to my ever growing watch collection. I know some of you won't like it but try to keep the low ball comments out. Ok. Also, I thought i post pics of my watch vs. genuine for comparison. I just posted the MB just for fun! I would never wear it, but all that's important (as others have said) is that you like it, can afford it, and it fits with your lifestyle. But your point about Vegas is wrong. Vegas is my second home (I work in the gaming industry) and everything doesn't have to be loud in Vegas. Vegas is the land of the poseurs. Anyone who lives and works there knows it, and can readily spot them from a mile away. Fake atitudes, fake clothes, fake jewely, fake watches, fake bags, and overbought fake lifestyles. All trying to make people think they have more money and a better life than they really do. Your post is a prime example. The watch (if genuine) would easily be worth far more than the car. Can't tell you how many times I have seen guys sporting blinged out watches, chains, or clothes (while bragging about how much everything cost) all of the sudden clam up when they get asked to buy a couple of bottles at a club, or when the meal comes to $1,000. Wearing a $30k watch (if genuine) and can't sit at a $100 blackjack table? Consider that being called out ... it happens all the time ... When in Vegas, I am able to get VIP treatment everywhere I go. Although I certainly don't dress like a bum or wear a Timex, there is no need to be "loud" to get treated well. People figure out I am probably doing well financially because of how I carry myself, and how I actually spend. No flash, no hype necessary. I don't have to advertise or try to sell it. Even if someone is an athlete, celebrity or rock star it's still really not necessary. Look at LeBron James. Could wear all the iced out stuff anyone could afford and he's normally wearing conservative clothes, and an understated AP (due to his endorcement deal). Yet everyone knows he's the man. He doesn't have to prove himself to anyone. When anyone has to dial up the volume to "prove they belong", they ususally don't, and it readily shows to those they are trying to impress. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hagus Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 I agree with all of the above! In the UK that merc is a 1000 to 2000 dollar car, so goes perfectly with that watch!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabioliveri Posted August 19, 2014 Report Share Posted August 19, 2014 hey mate, don't be hungry, or you are from Rusia and you are an oligarch or you are a pimp ! jajajaja Any time I go to Moscow for business it''s full of that kind of watches, especially in the expensive restaurants and in high class clubs, anyway, most of them are pimps, chechenians drug dealer, Georgian thieves , Vor v zakonyie ( Russian mafia ) or naff Oligarchs , but, with 100000 euros watches By the way, and jokes a part, if you like it, please, forget about stupid opinion ( like mine ) and enjoy it! Taste are taste! and has to be respected PS The Mercedes it's pretty old too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bc1221 Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Hrmm. I go to Vegas at least once a year and honestly never felt the need to be loud with clothes or watches. Most of the people I run in to there and my friends who live there seem to be the same way. The people in Vegas who are loaded are extremely low key. I've sat down next to guys who look like dishwashers sitting with a mil+ in checks. With that said, I think a blinged out tool watch is ridiculous. Blinged out watches in general are hideous IMO and they Scream rep. Even if they're real they look fake and cheap to me. To each their own I guess.

Legend Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Well said. The man who has it made does not need to show it in his car, clothes or watch. I tend to respect poise, dignity and substance as opposed to pomp and bling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helldiver Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Would love to compare your collection with the one from Horlogeman from RWG.bz Just a little question: could you do a wrist check please?

horlogeman Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 (edited) Seen this picture before on the internet... Got a full iced out myself... Don't really care what other people think but I love it (by the way I am Horlogeman who is Helldiver talking about) Edited August 20, 2014 by robbiesoesterberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Iceman Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 As long as you both like them, that is really all that matters. Wear them in good health! Personally I would not be caught wearing either of those watches. Also I would not use Vegas as the "scapegoat" I go to Vegas plenty and the real heavy hitters are not the ones flaunting gaudy "iced out" watches. Also the term "iced out" really makes me want to change my name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horlogeman Posted August 20, 2014 Report Share Posted August 20, 2014 Hahaha, that's just the term they use Iceman no hard feelings. Let's be lucky we not all like the same watches. If that was so, we were all wearing the same pieces and forums like this couldn't excist I never been to Vegas, don't know about the glitter and glamour over there... I am just a simple Dutchie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
