Rolexfinder Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 I want to order this one and want some opinions from the owner. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbrown1 Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 (edited) Quality is the same as the RB2 Ti. Problem with RB3 is that is titanium coated in gold, making it much lighter than the steel versions. If you've ever held a gold watch in the hand, holding an RB3, you will know immediately that something is off, this is slightly less obvious when holding a steel watch coated in gold. Also, the back logo is slightly different, it is matt PVD steel, where as the gen is glossy mirror ceramic. Other things to note are that like the RB2, the plate underneath the dial is completely different. Personally I'd wait till they fix the case back.

I think I have to wait as well. Cheers, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
