... modernized version of a Rolex classic. The new maxi dial, ceramic bezel and reinforced lugs and crown protection (a.k.a. maxi case) adds to the "Big" look of this watch without actually (thanks God) making it really bigger than the usual 40 mm case.

Now, the green dial and bezel is really an stunning variant, which I agree with our friend Nicolas, looks so well with a tan skin.

The dial is impressive, changing its green hue in respect to the ambient light. As we know, a few feet under water the green color is among the first to be absorved so a diver gets a black dial/bezel impression in his watch wearing this Hulk.

On the surface, the watch really shines, looks cool and sporty.

I still prefer to wear my vintage Subs, but I don´t regret having bought this green version.

Best cordial regards, Abel.

Nice!

I had a look in the Chicago Rolex boutique, and saw the new 4000ft Seadweller , and the latest GMT Master II (with the ceramic pepsi bezel), and I must admit, the new case size and look is growing on me. A lot. So, I could imagine that seeing this in the ...
