By-Tor Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 EBAY LISTING $1600 right now. The previous owner has apparently used this watch for... well... "exploring". Looks like even the black bezel numbers are possible to "wear out". First time I see this happen though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephane Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Wow, now that is what I call a watch !!! I love the look of it when so beaten... Too bad I crashed my car this morning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwhitesox Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Think of it as a sign Stephane that you don't actually need any more Rolex's. Having said that I hope you are ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sql_pl Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 "Watch is in good pre-owned ~ as found ~ condition in and out" I wonder how would a bad condition watch look according to this seller then Nice find but it is quite beat up.

I just cancelled my full insurrance a couple of months ago so I'll have to pay for my car's damages . I was zapping on the radio...and couldn't stop when the car ahead suddenly stopped... Music will kill me one day My last accident was the exact same one 22 years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velasco Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I've seen "vanishing" bezel numbers on a '91 gen Explorer II. The effect is, well... cheap. Nothing to compare to faded bezels IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Looks like even the black bezel numbers are possible to "wear out". First time I see this happen though. The paint may have been removed by an ultrasonic cleaner. Too bad I crashed my car this morning Sorry to hear about your car, but I am glad to hear you are alright Stephane.
