You should bring the watch to the AD and have Rolex fix the rehaut. The alignment is one of the common ways you can spot a fake. I wouldn’t just accept it. I’ve sent a watch back to Rolex for a similar QC issue and they addressed it. I had a wait a few weeks while it was sent back, but it was addressed no charge.
@ccooper87856 ай бұрын
I am surprised that Rolex did not charge you extra for the rehaut fault. Nice enough watch but not as nice as the 1970/80s OPs (these pastel dials are hideous) and definitely not worth the high cost.

I recently purchased a new 2023 GMT. I am very impressed with the build quality, the look, and the overall feel on the wrist. The accuracy is absolutely unbelievable. Its build quality is very near, if not as near, as the build quality of Rolex. Additionally, I ordered the Tudor leather strap and buckle which also looks amazingly classic. This watch dresses up or down. They have increased significantly in price over the last couple of years, however, they are worth the investment and they seem to hold their value quite well after the date issue was corrected in 2020 or so.

I have both both the SARB033 and the SARB035. Bought them 12 days ago from a gentleman in Edinburgh who was selling off his late brother's chattels. Both watches were boxed and unused. Put straps on both for a better look. Fantastic. A great find.

@paullb2440 Жыл бұрын
GP is very similar in cachet to JLC in that watch enthusiasts know it’s good, but nobody else has heard of it. However unlike JLC (specifically the Reverso) the Laureato while it may have an authentic provenance in the early 70s, looks too derivative of the Royal Oak. With the Reverso people will admire your choice of the originator of this iconic design, however sadly with the Laureato people are gonna think “he couldn’t afford the Royal Oak”, in fact I’d be thinking that myself all the time if I owned it. So much as I think this is a lovely piece, I couldn’t own it.

Great video guys, first of yours that I’ve watched. I’m no longer buying watches after 2 years of regular buying, getting bored of (or finding ones I want more) and selling of watches from various manufacturers as I’m now focussed on getting an Oyster Perpetual 36mm blue dial. Not as a keep then sell investment but as an every other day sports watch. I love it’s elegance and simplicity. It’s an iconic design.

The AD in my area had a 126000 with blue dial incased in what appeared to be bullet proof glass recessed into the wall like it was the Mona Lisa. The salesman still got it out and insisted I try it on when I told him that was the watch I wanted. Although I did not walk out with a watch I was treated respectfully , he answered all my questions and I got to try it on. And yes I am now on the waiting list. Lol. Fingers crossed.
