combine ideas?

Hi,

Perhaps we can merge the ideas:
1. Continue to form a list of people who are keen to get the complete watch with custom dial for the chosen model.
2. Since a custom dial is involved for the chosen watch model, can we make more dials for folks who either already have the watch or folks who are just aspiring owners?

I'm think a really cool dial, which is serialized on the dial side!!! (like the recent SpeedMaster XXXX/1957). We can reserve the 1-50 to complete watch commitment and 51-100 to dial only collectors.

Please don't flame me, I'm only thinking out loud .... I don't mind getting a special edition dial packaged like this for keeps: (pic attached borrowed from timezone).

Interesting Idea... It would enable some of us who are not ready to commit the $ for a rolex to join in, abeit at a later stage...

Of course one of the main attractions of a project like this is the fact that we will be able to get a nice rolex at a Mass Order price

Hi all, I'm a newbie here and think you guys are cool.

If the LE watch is a Rolex I'll be interested. Don't get me wrong, I'm a watch collector and I have about 30 Seiko dive watches and I love them. Since it's a Rolex forum I feel that it should be Rolex related.

I'm thinking out loud here: How about building LE dials for popular Rolex watch models, such as the 6694 or some other model, using genuine/aftermarket dials(subject to further discussion).
1. Some of us already have a Rolex sitting around without much chance to wear. So instead of buying the whole watch, why not make it a special forum dial we can buy and swap into our own. That way we get to keep a completely authentic Rolex at the same time for servicing purpose.
2. For folks who don't own the model, we can always get one later or just collect the dial as it is.
3. For folks who don't own a Rolex, it can always be an inspiration to own something Rolex first while waiting for the first watch purchase. Quite meaningful.

What do you guys think? Just my 2 cents as a newbie...

Only problem with point no 1....because different mode are of different sizes,some 40mm,36mm,34mm,26mm...

if you have a sample, i can ask my printing contacts to do..... i suspect they would use pad printing depending on your color choice

[feilong108]

awaiting for the price and pics..hehehehe

Louis ,

Got few supporter for 6694 serviced i try to sound out the price range and if anybody else can get better price kindly post in this thread .

We need someone to design the 6694 maybe the words SGROC from indicator 8 to 4 ?

Need to get dealer to take out all the dials do servicing and need to find people to print on the dial .

[psee]

If can get 100 pcs order i can press with dealer for better prices .
And do you guys want the 6694s to be serviced or untouched ?

Serviced

[seiko.citizen]

[feilong108]

Don't you think it would be a windfall for any pre-owned dealer... to be able to sell like 50-100 watches in a day?! Can definately justify a v v good discount

After reading some posts here I realise that a commemorative watch should have some significance as such I've decided tat its either no brand or Rolex, actualli for Rolex as some folks here have stated economic of scale can do e job. So those whose pockets nt so deep yet can still afford. MHO.
