Does the clasp on it have "SteelInox" stamped on it?

I thought I would like it, but its pure vanilla. Nothing to like, nothing to dislike.
The perfect illustration of Rolex being unable to do anything new/interesting.

I was pretty excited about this until a female acquaintance of mine showed off her ability to eyeball the difference between steel and white gold. Pretty turned off by how easy it was, and i prefer my reps to stand up to a decent level of scrutiny.

I actually asked her, and she did her best to answer but i think it just comes from years of staring at jewellery :p. Apparently, they are just different shades of white. Stainless steel is "whiter" and has a really distinctive shade, but polished WG has a brighter shine to it. I could kinda see the difference side by side, but only because i knew there was a difference to look out for.

Ss and white gold have different shades. This said it ss can be polished to look close but its better to plate it, after all white gold is plated yellow gold...

Not Rolex...Rolex is the only company that owns a foundry and the white gold they produce (along with the rose one) is the only one that does not yellowish after years...you can daily wear a white gold Rollieand it will never be like yellow coming out...

Well here's another LIKE. Saw an advert for a genuine that caught my eye. Not really a big Rollie fan but thought I could nonetheless add one to the small collection.
So the intro says: [h=2]New release Yatch Master 226659 from ''KS''[/h] 18-10-19, 16:40

Has it arrived ? Can you report anyting?
I see Trustytime has three versions from 3 separate factories. KSF, SKY & WF.
