Shawnny 5 Posted July 8, 2021 I never thought that I’d like a Rolex. But, the carbon fiber versions are kinda making me stiff. And, I need to add a carbon fiber watch to my collection. What do you guys think about them? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aramis2288 6,245 Posted July 8, 2021 Which carbon fiber Rolex? There is: - OMF DiW GMT II Master in forged carbon (haven't really seen anybody buying it so it's hard to assess the quality, plus the movement is a bit concerning) - OMF fat A7750 DiW Daytona in forged carbon (way thicker than Noob clone, which makes it inaccurate) - Noob 4130 clone movement DiW forged carbon Daytona (probably the best carbon Rolex out there, but as of now, it's impossible to buy because Noob has been put down) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although, I do like the Daytona’s. Choosing which one will take some time. Actually there’s a few watches I want to buy, for that reason. I could see a crack down coming and this whole hobby coming to an end, fast. I’ve always been surprised that we can buy these watches at all. It’s time to get, while the gettin’s good.

Flyinhawaiian 8 Posted July 19, 2021 Personally not my cup of tea but at least it’s not one of those clear plastic ones that are getting hyped up right now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, even gen watches crafted from the sapphire (e.g. the blue sapphire RM) look like a toy from McDonalds. Let alone a plastic one. But the full sapphire/plastic Rolex is on another level. Kinda reminds me of this meme though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
