Oyster Perpetual 41mm 124300 KING

[GrandmasterChime]

Yes, I'm starting to get excited about this release, all of the pics above look great (with the exception of the "Tiffany" colour - but although not close to gen, that one still looks good). Hands and bezel look great to me, silver sunburst looks fantastic.

Looking forward to seeing these once on wrists.

That ^ crown looks weird... are my eyes playing tricks on me?

Yes, Rolex logo is a bit off.

I think he refers to the marked area. Could be a reflection.

Nothing that will be visible IRL. Approve.

 

[cyprusdaedalus]

Is the 3230 in this VR or VS orrrr something else?

Actually I'm looking at the bit circled in yellow here...

...it looks like the metal has flowed out, the area between the coronet and circumference of the crown should be flat (or recessed from the coronet).

I'm not making this observation in terms of QC RL/GL, that's a buyer decision... but it doesn't look like it should, unless it's simply a trick of the lighting..

 

[merowinger]

Aaah, now I see what you mean! Looks strange indeed, but it must be a reflection. Although, I wonder why there is no plastic foil, like on my QC:

My crown looks odd

I have the GMF V2 and I actually think it's the curve in the bezel that makes it look fat. Width wise it seems ok but like you guys are saying, the reflections seem to make it look "Just off" (In some lights anyway). I wonder if a modder might be able to polish just enough off to change all that though?

Alternatively, might have to stick one of those King bezels on - they do look like an improvement.

 

[shazer]

Not my QC but this particular color doesn't look too good. Silver dial is looking great!

Wow

Very very nice!

Should be a suitable candidate for a franken.

Yeah, that bezel looks much much better than the GMF.

Mine is coming, going to put gen blue dial in it and see how it looks.

I am excited to see how it comes out!

Interested too!
