    Looks alright to me. Seen much worse done to sports Rolexes. If it were mine I'd want it on a black NATO I think.

    Long term resale value? close to feck all I'd guess.

    Re: marmite sea dweller

    I like it because it's an SD... 8)
    I like DLC... 8)

    Should the two things meet...maybe... :?

    Is it worth almost double an original unabused SD....

    Greedy muppets...

    and while I'm at it....if you're going to fiddle about and make it non standard
    you could at least put some sexy "gladiator" hands on... :wink:

    Awful. What a sad waste.

    :(

    I'm yet to find an all balck watch (where the bracelet is also black) that I like. Most I've seen look knackered after a few months proper wear. Or alternatively look cheap and plasticky from the off.

    Boo.

    I recall looking at Project X's website. DLC coating my watch would be as much as it cost me to buy.

    It's OK & works pretty well with the balance of the piece. However still don't like Merc hands.

    "Double Red" is a lie. "Double Red" in the context of Rolex means something very specific. Scribbling over two words in crayon does not make a "Double Red". It it analogous to me adding COMEX with a white Letraset to a Sub and flogging it for five figures.
    ...but what do I know; I don't even like watches!

    Oh, it's nice enough to look at, don't get me wrong - but I have this in-built limiter that stops me giving money to liars. It's why I have such a terrible problem paying tax, let alone buying watches ;).
    ...but what do I know; I don't even like watches!

    Well they're not lying, it does have a Red Script of two lines on it... ;)
    Double Red was nothing special from Rolex, it was just a run of them it's just their rarity that has made them 'special'.

    Like many others

    PS - getting your knickers in a twist over taxes is far more unhealthy than discussing and buying watches :wink:

    Head looks OK, bracelet looks crap.

    Overall, not bad but not worth the money.
