Got the Misses a Rolex

chipperhead · 20 Dec 2007 at 19:57

Bought my misses a Rolex Datejust, a few years old with diamond bezel and diamond markings, looks lovely in the flesh.

Thought I'd add a few diamonds to my Breitling aswell seen as she has them with a 2 carat diamond bezel.

I agree, it might be some sort of investment but I'd wager it looked classier before the ice was added

Unfortunately Breitlings aren't investments, I'm tempted to sell it though and get a Rolex myself.

Rotty · 20 Dec 2007 at 20:30

how old is it ?

didn't think they had used the Tritium dials for some time

Is the bezel an aftermarket one ?

I don't know how old it is, I think its a few years though and don't know about the bezel either.
My brothers got a contact in the trade, I said I was after a Rolex and offered me this for £1700, seemed ok for the money to me when I looked at what others I could get for that money.
How does the price seem to you out of interest?

Indeed. There seems to be a trend to riun the Chronomat Evo by sticking a diamond bezel on it. It would actually look better on a black leather strap with the bezel.

On to the Rolex, very nice. It's amazing how many women you see wearing those.

The Breitling is the one of the most vulgar watches I have seen. Could the OP tell why he felt the need to have diamonds inserted into the Breitling's bezel? I find the fashion to 'bling' things up is just so sad. To me it just says, 'Look at me I can afford diamonds but I haven't got a personality/life......etc'

I wouldn't buy any diamonds myself but if you got it flaunt it, he seems like a nice guy also so nice guy + diamonds > just a nice guy.
