Interesting read.
Most posters commented to the effect that "If I want to spend 10K on a Rolex and paint pink unicorns on the dial it's none of Rolex's business". That's true, but then don't be shocked if the AD threatens to void your warranty when you bring it in for a service. (After all, let's remember that Rolex spends BIG bucks sponsoring things like Three Day Equestrian Events, not My Little Pony conventions.)
La Californienne mods their watches with dials that are "re-imagined...hand-painted using punchy pops of color inspired by California’s vibrant sunsets..."
, which they then
sell commercially as a Rolex (or Cartier, or whatever) brand watch. Gwyneth Paltrow and her GOOP website rave about them, and $ money $ is made. To me, that is another matter, and I think Rolex has a point. I'm surprised Rolex took this long to jump on them.
But gawd, the
y are
fugly - and this is one woman that would not be caught dead with one on her wrist.
(Feel free to talk me out of my position, but don't even try to convince me they are fashionable...)
