Coat of Arms - Hand Engraved?
Hey guys,I've heard that the Rose gold weight that can be seen thru the case back of 15400s is hand engraved. Is it actually? It seems like it would take an awfully long time to do that.Haha, I guess it could be, it's so beautiful.

First Rolex watch choices?
Hi all, I am new to this forum. This is in fact my first post. I plan on purchasing a Rolex date just floated bezel with the silver dial.I came across a few posts where by wearing a Rolex to work and social planned might affect the people around me and show me as a jerk. Reading all those posts sort of confused me , honestly, a few of my coworkers are quite jealous and I don't want it to move further but wearing a Rolex. At the same time, I personally feel that I want a date just because that's the watch of my choice . To stay low on the radar, I thought why not get a Rolex explorer since it has a black dial and I can stay low and people will not know that I've a Rolex. What do you guys recommend? Honestly I don't care what my coworkers think, however I do feel that it could impact me somehow, that's why I'm confused. I need your opinions and thoughts and I would really appreciated if you could respond. Thanks,Dan
