Green sticker on back of rolex..

Recommended Posts

Whats a safe and easy way to remove the sticker at the back of your rolex? It seems pretty tough to get off and i dont want to damage the watch, thanks

Can't say I've tried too hard. Some come off on their own after a while - others seem to be stuck on there for ever. Chances are that if you can get it started, a little lighter fluid on a cloth will get the rest of it off - albeit with some effort...

Get the edge up on each side with your fingernail. Then rub in one direction and the other alternate so the goo doesn't get into the ridges. Once it comes off use acetone on the goo that is left.

You do know that someone will try this, probably not Jay123, but someone... and it will be all your fault.

You all wrong. It could be removed with hammer and chisel only.

i think if you leave it in a bowl or cup of hydrochloric acid.. that should just about do the trick :lol:

Let me know how you get on :)

Personally I prefer a cup of napalm. I find this most effective and gives the added benefit of instant vintageising thereby increasing it's RG re-sale potential and value by aprox 1,000,000 percent.

 

If the napalm method really isn't you I suggest the Fakemaster method above.

Hmm - possibly. Maybe a tad overkill though? :(
