What are those weird lines on your watch ? Never seen that on a gen Rolex.

You seem like a troll, but I'll entertain it - What specifically are you asking? (e.g., What are the weird lines on the dial?)

The red lines on your watch. I'm intrigued as I have purchased tons of watches in my lifetime and never seen this

The red lines on your watch. I'm intrigued as I have purchased tons of watches in my lifetime and never seen this

Are you referring to the red/purple lines used to check index alignment? Or maybe the red lines on the protective wrapping?

I am not seeing any other red lines.

How long does shipping take?

I can't be sure until I receive the watch, but on PureTime's website, it says "Shipping takes between 7-10 business days (not including weekends or public holidays) to arrive to you. Please note that this is the shipping time and does not include the time needed to process your order. We are not held responsible for any shipping delay, as we have no control over the package once we have shipped it out."

So I am expecting the watch anytime before June 1, 2023.

I'll update you and this thread when I receive the watch to give insight into the shipping time from PureTime to NYC.
