I don't like any kind of coating that wears off.
That includes PVD, paint, gold plating etc.
When it starts to wear, the watch looks cheap.

That white dial Daytona is the way Rolex should make it, that piece is just stunning! I ain`t hating the black dialed either or the Expy

i like anything PVD, but the last rolex, what is different apart from the green "X" on the dial, and the nato?
Anyhoo, one of my favorite PVD jobbies was Ian's (aka ultramagnetic) DLC Seamaster....

Aside from the one with blue numbers on the bezel, I think they look fantastic.
And that Seamaster..

I have to agree, they do look good new.
I think the bracelets begin to show wear the fastest. If I had a PVD, I would have to have it on some kind of strap.

If one has the mass dinero to tinker with Rolexes like that, they'd be getting them dlc'd also I'd think.
I know I would.

[quote="watch-man7777"]These are by far the best PVD/DLC Rolexes I have ever seen. I generally DO NOT like the concept, but I can't help but just drool over these. What say you?

I LOVE PVD/DLC.. they all look great but this one with the blue...... SIGH
Thanks for sharing

Same here, but that last one, the sub, looks awesome!
I wouldn't mind just pvd/dlc accents like the bezel and/or crowns. Less likely to wear I would think....
