Very interesting and well executed video. I have a meteorite dial microbrand diver on order and was pleasantly surprised to see rolex showcase the dial and was also surprised by the information you provided on the particular meteorite used. Great video.

That sloppy paint job on the GMT hand (4:47) makes me cringe!! Great video, came here for a watch review and got an astronomy lesson as well!

This video changed my mind on this watch. That dial is simply fantastic!

Maybe "No One Expected This From Rolex" was a reference to the sh!t-for-paint job on the GMT hand at 4:49. But no... I think people have actually come to expect that, as we've seen it so often. But at $40K? [tear drop rolls down cheek].

This was clearly Rolex testing the waters, thats why they didn't say anything about it. Just a test to see how ppl react to it. If it works great, they'll do it again. If not, they kill it off and more than likely pass the design off to Tudor at a more affordable price and win still.
