Rolex

No message body

I own one exactly like you mentioned 3185 +Stick dial +coke. Interested to find out more is it really rarer than 3186? Forgive me about this silly question .

.....it is very hard to say definitively that it is rarer. in my experience, I have seen more 3186 stick than 3185. But is it rarer? I think they are both rare

Haven't checked for a while as worked suddenly got busy. I haven't bought it yet as I've decided I like Pepsi better, and so have started looking towards that direction instead.

As always I have enjoyed your series of posts.

Any chance to have more insights like this on other brands?

Patek, AP, JLC, Omega maybe?

They would be a delight to read!

As always, thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

Best.

I guess each forum Moderator will have an opinion on this.

For me, I think this type of detail is very much a part of Rolex. It’s what Rolex collecting has been about for decades. Also, few manufacturers “create” the anomalies like Rolex do and further, non-Rolex collectors just don’t seem to care too much about it. But to a Rolex collector it is relevant.

So.... I guess I am saying that this type of thing is really mostly about Rolex and not so evident in other manufacturers.

From that point of view maybe only vintage Patek would fit into that category of little variations.

Indeed I have read your posts on the Patek Philippe Calatrava.

Best regards.
