My SS Diver - Fresh from the Spa
My new SS Diver was sent in to Singapore APSC for service, change to a new bezel and some light polishing. Now, two months after, the watch comes back looking like new again. Very happy about the job done. Please to share some pics. This watch has been with me for 5 years now.

Calling on rolex lume specialists
Hi guys, Wondering if someone can help me figuring this one out:As you know, I bought a 1998 U4xxx Explorer 2 polar dial;It came with SEL link stamped Z ( I believe Z = 1997 from what I could recoup from my search), and with a tritium dial. The dial does not glow, but when I am in extreme darkness, there is a faint greenish glow to it. Under blacklight, all the lume parts react in a uniform manner. Now under the sun, the dots and arrows remain white. A friend of mine who has an A series swiss dial with luminova, the lume immediately shows a strong green on the dots and arrow.So I am wondering, can it be that mine has a tritium in a final stages of dying? I read here and there that the latter U series had a tritium dial but luminova lume, yet the reaction is different from the A swiss model I seen. Can anyone help me shade some light (no pun intended)? Thanks for helping me out putting this puzzle togetherBest- Rafteur

Remembering my first and celebrating my last Rolex
I was never really into watches or in fact any form of jewellery. My first watch was a birthday gift Timex which I wore as a child for a few months before losing it. The second watch I ever bought was a Longines lady quartz watch for my wife in which to celebrate a new job, she loved it and wore it every day and when I got and even bigger break in 2008 I vowed to get her something more expensive. This was my first introduction to Rolexmmedia/Mobile%20Uploads/22E6DFBC-7CE1-40F6-928B-423D34C224D5_zpswzx6m95s.jpg.html" target="_blank">18months later she persuaded me to get a 116234 and whilst initially reluctant to wear anything on my wrist I, after 4 years of daily wear therein started my journey with TRF and luxury watches. I've had the good fortune to own and wear many fantastic brands and still own some today. In a collection of 8 (2 of which are owned by my wife) I/we own 3 Rolex and 5 other brands. 3 rolex keepers from a total of 12 Rolex and 22 other brands that have passed thr
