I saw that and I actually prefer some of those to the original - but then I'm not a Rolex fan so not sure that means much. Not sure about the camo one though.

The bumblebee is kinda cool but all I want is a blue ceramic sub with blue dial. I dream about that actually.

For a woodsman from the great north I figured that might be right up your alley. :poke:

Dont they have that model in the WG? A bit pricey, but if the model is taking over your dreams it may be meant to be

They do and yea it's crazy expensive!! Over $30k I believe and the blue in person is a very bright blue. I want a deep dark blue ceramic MMMMMMMMMMM. :drool:

I love the pink Rolex...I would snatch that one up for the Mrs. in heartbeat.

I like the idea of playing around with the color combinations, but I think that changing the bracelet and the case make it a little too over the top for me. It would be enough if they just changed the dial and the bezel IMO.

The first one was very similar to the Yachtmaster. a very good looking watch without being too much of a stretch from the original

+1. I love that combo. It doesn't seem too far fetched... Well maybe for Rolex it does.

I actually liked most of them! Very un-Rolex-interesting!

I only held one Rolex, but never liked the cheap feel to it's weight - are they still like that?
