What time is it? Watches and horology

Looks like a Casio MTP-V002D-1B, the bracelet matches as does the font on the 4.

That's a great design for outdoor use, and at £14 the quality and value look superb. Thanks for posting !

I'm sure we had a conversation on here a while back about domino's pizza rolex and other collectable " branded " Rolex.
I have just been offered another one if anyone is interested.......

Here is the offending article……

Wild. Shame they lost the Domino's branding on the dial.

I just can't connect the dots

Probably cause there's not in alignment

Care to share the window price on this?

Not interested, but I was talking to a pal of mine about the Dominos Rolex a few weeks back and he thought it was mad.

I guess I am asking, is there a premium for Dominos over a regular version?

I think by that point Rolex had stopped doing co-branded watches from the factory so they had to switch to aftermarket modding (riveting the logo to the bracelet and engraving the caseback).

They are exactly the model of OP36 I have, only spoiled.

Yeah, I guessed as much. I didn't realize they still gifted Rolex's in a reference as modern as this until seeing this photo. Thought it ended a long time ago.

I’ve not seen a more modern Domino’s Rolex than that reference, so they may have stopped doing it. Though that might just be because they can’t bulk order Air-Kings / OPs like they used to. That and the DJ were the last steel Rolexes you could walk in and buy, in pre-pandemic 2019. (Those times may yet return, once the new factories are built and the resale value drops below retail.)

Ironically that's the closest thing to a Rolex I'd wear.

Shame that the Domino's bits make it rarer (/more valuable??), that bracelet and case back look moody af.

Not sure yet what its sticker will be. Depends on the final figure I pay for it , but I would say early £4k . Which is a bargain.
It is possible to swap out the bracelet section. And I may do so, but supply the other section as well.

This is rather lovely as far as reissues go.

Nice, any more info ?

Reference 96b427. It's 39mm and only £200 or so

Would you care to share a few pictures doing the dial justice? I'm tempted to DM @ejay2.0 to snap it up.

Are you saying ejay’s pictures are substandard? Surely not, etc.

It’s a completely neutral silver, it’s the same colour as the rest of the watch. They actually called it "Steel", the "Silver" dial was a warmer colour (though weirdly, the current Datejust silver is even brighter/more white than the steel dial was).

Do DM ejay !!
It won’t be here long .

this was on my want list after seeing an image on this thread, but four smiths watches all black dial, when all I can wear for work is an f91 is kinda ridiculous. (said while wearing the Everest and thinking well why not it saves a strap change)

Time for a haircut, happy Friday

This was my order a couple weeks ago. I wasn’t sure what mood I’d be in but someone posting a yellow G was the catalyst.

Not Friday yet at least according to this gadget
