(As suggested by another member...) Lets see 'em This one I attached to my re-cased MkII, picked up on ebay for nothing some years ago.
This 145.022-74 was one of the more attractive ghosts I've ever laid eyes on, and has since found another home.
My 105.003 also has just the slightest ghostery beginning to come over the bezel, but is hard to photograph in the wrong lighting conditions.
I never believed in ghosts before I saw these: [emoji317][emoji317] Sent from my iPhone 6 using Tapatalk
Very nice bezels. I read somewhere that ghost bezels can be achieved by bleaching them with chemicals. Detach the bezel, soak with bleach for a few minutes and voila. I never tried it but seems interesting!!
then wait for the following thread - HELP - I tried to make my bezel a Ghost Bezel using chemicals Lets leave that one there huh!
Yes the Rolex boys do it....and you remember the spate of grey telemetre speedmaster bezels last year? I suspect they might have had help. I have not tried it. My Rolex friend tells me that you have to check the reverse of the insert which should be a darker colour as it is not exposed to the fading influence. Be it light, UV or environment. Where upon he flipped the bezel off his watch and clicked out the insert - something we speedmaster owners cannot do so easily. Speedmaster inserts by themselves are not service replacements, only the entire bezel. Once a bezel insert is separated from the steel ring it is hard to get it to stay back without glue. (In my experience). All these little tricks the Rolex boys have used for years I expect to infect our world as prices rise.
You guys are too funny. Believing in ghosts at your age. This is a true ghost bezel. As ghosts does not exist.
Unfortunately I've never had a grey bezeled speedy, but I did have this one. Still miss it sometimes..
