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 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.

i like anything PVD, but the last rolex, what is different apart from the green "X" on the dial, and the nato? :shrug:

Anyhoo, one of my favorite PVD jobbies was Ian's (aka ultramagnetic) DLC Seamaster.... :drool:

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

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.

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.... :think:
