There are a lot of nice watches/ straps in this page. | Straps are either held in by pins (solid or spring bar) or lug screws. With pins you just get one of those fancy strap change tools (~20) so that you don't risk wrecking the finish on the watch. Lug screws you just need the appropriate sized screw driver. Quote:

On another note with your PRC200's, how's your deployment clasp holding up?
I find mine is getting easier to get loose and just unclips frequently during the day...

Thank you for all the info!

I see the PRC200 is a very popular choice.

You can actually take any watch and have it relumed to be that bright with the new superluminova formula.

On Rolex forums and WUS a few guys had their indicators redone to match the new DSSD color (just like the new PO).
I think it hurts the watch resale big time, though it costs around $300 for everything including bezel...big risk though.

Do you know why they would need to change the bezel? The lume is inside the watch , i dont see the need to switch the bezel.

You are correct, no need to change the bezel, but the indicators and the pearl can be relumed on there too, and is not much more expensive than just the base relume.

^ ahh ic since there is a lume part on the bezel too that makes sense.
The new sub already has the blue lume just like the dssd. Probably the non ceramic sub owners doing the conversion.
Do u post on rolexforums often? Posted via RS Mobile | |
