Watching the watch dial

Rolex logo etched at 6 o'clock position on watch dial.

Remember the good old days of Indiglo? Ah yes, a warm summer night or a cold winter evening (in which your car had broken down in the middle of Montana) having the comfort of Indiglo to answer the lifelong question, "What time is it?" and "Call triple A.", well scrap that, because this watch will have nothing of it. Rolex has one-upped themselves, not the consumer, with the latest design of replacing the six o'clock number with the Rolex crown. Fittingly enough for King Edward the 3rd, twice a day there is now a King o'clock. There's also mention of automatic movement, a diver's extension to watch bracelet, and steelinox clasp. I don't know about you, but I'm astounded.

You're more than welcome to become hooked on this feelin'.
