What??
Very unhappy, my diver never had the slightest shock, never, and just now I see that a small chip of ceramic between the bezel and the crown guard, basically the most protected part of the case, has gone off, in itself it is like a normal cut in a metal watch, it is almost not visible, because of where it is situated, but this is very disappointing since this is AP ceramic which is supposed to be 7 times harder than steel and it was never ever hit even moderately on something, and that part is so protected you have to take a very pointy chisel to make it, which I did not do, I suppose it is a construction failure, just hope there won't be any other... Not sure you can see it, it is basically in between the crown and screw of the strap, again it is the part of the case between the bezel and crown guard... No you see it, the small white mark just under the rubber image.jpg

Rolex since 1980.
Since 1980 I have had three Rolex watches. One a datejust, one a day date and one a bluesy. To me those three are the best references, all 5 digit. To me they are what Rolex watches are about. Classics.
