My 1st Rolex 126610LV Starbuck October 2023 fresh from Clean Factory

How is the Starbuck doing these days

An update picture as promised. Gorgeous piece. The seller said I could send back and get it changed but since I realized the only flaw was the rehault crown misalignment and which is also common with the gen, I decided to keep it instead of the risk of sending it back and getting a worse replacement. Hope you guys like it. Mind my finger prints and the reflection of my super dehydrated skin.

Awesome!

I thought they were done with the steel inox bracelets. Even the clean 2836 movement subs I’ve purchased recently didn’t come with those bracelets. Oh well, You’re not trying to trick anyone so no big deal. Great looking watch brother.

Thank for so much for that info. I’m relieved to hear that. I’ll still inform the seller tomorrow morning to see if he can rectify it since its still exchangeable. Just wanna take the opportunity to test out his after sales service as well. Thanks again TESLA760

I've owned a black sub and a GMT Master II and both had perfectly aligned crowns with the 12 on the rehaut. That looks off like a $100 Thailand rep. I couldn't live with that.

I agree, but I have lots of work colleagues and friends with a number of gen Rolex's among them and all were perfectly aligned. It is very hard for the rep shops to get this right and is the very first thing I look for in a rep Rolex.

Rolex makes a millon watches a year. Let's say you and your friends own 20 of them. That's less than 0.002% of Rolexes made that year. There are over 600,000 116x Subs in existence. Again. Small sample size.

My reps are all perfectly aligned fyi. Here's my Hulk. It's a matter of QC.
