Rolex Daytona Meteorite Dial Watch Available On James List
I am always torn about writing about Rolex watches - because frankly, they don't need the press. While I'd be happy wearing any number of Rolex watches (although I feel most of them are too small these days), there are a few interesting models that standout to me that don't get a lot of face time. In fact, many of my favorite Rolex watches are less than stellar sellers. These include two-tone models (Rolesor) and models like this Rolex Daytona with a meteorite dial.Personally, I love meteorite dials. I don't think that I collected rocks as a kid, but stuff from space did fascinate me. In this case, the "source" of the dial is actually more interesting to me than the look of it. Though I do admit, as far as stone dials go, acid washed meteorite is pretty nice. Plus, Rolex being Rolex, they are going to choose the nicest meteorite they can get their hands on. Rolex has a problem in this area though. There are so many "modified" Rolex watches out there, it is very hard to tell with rarer

My TWO new watches!
Hi All,I am now the proud owner of a Omega Seamaster Professional Planet Ocean and a Panerai 000.In a twist of fate, I originally joined this forum to get my first Rolex. I was just a smidge away from pullling the trigger on the DSSD, but in the end I backed away. I have spent hours upon hours on the internet learning about various models to finally decide on these two.Technically, I got the Omega first as I ordered it on Monday, received it only today... But the wait was soooooo damn painful I kept the fire burning by looking at other watches in the meantime. So, even before receiving the PO, last nite, on the way home from work, I went to try on the PAM000 and I pulled the trigger on the spot. Today, I get the call from UPS that they can delivery the PO a few hours earlier than scheduled. In the space of 24 hours, I have two new great looking watches to play with. Like a kid in a candy shop...Once I work out how to upload pics will do...For now, thanks to everyone for their hel
