Rolex Oyster Date

[maxlawbr]

Hello Mates,

I love my gen oyster date Rollie, specially because of the bezel, does anyone know where to find a good rep of it? It don't need to be an Oyster date, it can be a Datejust, but I'd like to find one with that bezel.

You have a nice one there. Why bother with a rep?? Probably better to get a rep of a watch you don't have yet.

I could never understand why people want a rep of their gen watches.......imo, if you have a gen, wear it with pride & joy, Its a watch, its gonna get banged up a little.......

he never said hes looking for an identical copy to his gen, hes just looking for a datejust with similar bezel detail.

I don't know what Rolex calls that bezel, but this site calls them "bark":

If the site redirects you to the main page, just search for "bark" in the Quick Find box located on the right

Thats correct Joegrimm, I like this bezel and only found it in one air king rep selling here in our local market.

Thanks mate,

Rolex call it machinery bezel, and the bark one looks to be the same.

I'll send josh an e-mail.

Oh, my mistake.......either way, its got a Breitling look to it, something I dont like much & im pretty sure Rolex only makes just one date-just with this bezel.

But mine don't turn, it is fixed.

 

[sub4me]

Its not supposed to turn and I have no idea why others started to metion the TOG.

Engine turned is a term used in how the bezel design is made.

Rolex bezel types for DJ, Airking, and Oyster Date
Fluted
Smooth
Engine Turned (your bezel)
TOG (DJ only)
Diamond encrusted
Gem encrusted

My TOG has an engine turned rotating bezel, that looks like that, but is numbered.

Thanks a lot, let's see, it will be perfect.
