Took a trip back east to visit family.
I tried my best to get some decent photos out the window but with mixed results at best.

Personally, I find it interesting that you’re asking for opinions on a fake watch (as discussed in your Grail thread). I like you Swatch far more than this, so my vote for combination goes to that one. But I guess, as long as you’re having fun 👍

I really like how people who don't know where I purchased or who evaluated my watch ,seem to think they know everything about my watch. I know what is in it where it came from and that is all that matters.This website is what I thought was supposed to be where people could show what they have what they enjoy,but as with any thing these days you have know it alls and dicks that love bashing or throwing their two cents in. I believe mainly because they have nothing better to do....

Well, according to your grail thread, you bought this watch as being authentic Rolex with authentic Rolex service parts sprinkled in there. You said

towboat

contains a lot of original service parts as well. It contains original serviced movement, aged nicely service hands and dial,stainless steel service bezel

And then when asked,

-Only to then find out everything you thought was genuine, was actually fake

And if you look at yours on the left vs a genuine 6538 on the right, it’s quite apparent that your case looks nothing like it- lugs are too thick, taper&shape is wrong, as is the crown, and bezel has the wrong teeth/spacing.

You have had two Rolex experts weigh in on that thread and you brushed them to the side saying you trust the evaluation of the AD staff more

towboat

Some members believe that they know more than ad's

Whom, are not experts in the lineage of Rolex

Correct,the ad's watch maker or tech is a former tech for rolex so yes I trust his evaluation more than someone off a forum. He happens to be someone that I can talk to face to face and not just some username on a website.That is all I have to say.

Barking mad

Home from the wedding, quiet cocktail at home and then out for dinner😀

Uncle Hai disappeared after the wedding celebrations yesterday and then came back with this load strapped on both sides of the bike. Don't know if he had been shopping or hunting😁

I’m drooling. My dream watch….
