It doesn't feel like a Rolex.....
.....it doesn't look like a Rolex. Its actually quite hard to buy as its never No.1 on the buy list. Took me years to pull the trigger. I am glad I did.
Such a cool watch!
Personally I would go for the white dialed version. But hey, you can't go wrong with a 1019 can you?
I agree, Arie. First of all, the 1019 is really cool
I wish it would be still as under-appreciated as it was for a long time... and yes, my preference would also be the white dial
A pleasure watch and I admire the technical background
just wondering, do you always have it on the bracelet or do you also like it on strap?
Ok, I just personally feel that a vintage style strap would make it look very special and vintage
but probably more so on the white dial 1019.
Beautiful
I would love to have the silver "CERN" edition with the dial and hands with blackout where the lume would normally be.
Not many Rolexes stir my interest other than . . .
. . . 1019s, Joe. The most desirable personally, albeit the least obtainable. :-( Once my Omega collection is fixed, it'll be time to hunt a Veriflat.
