Did you think of that piece at all while wearing your SS ceramic?

These releases will be novelty and super rare and the average Rolex buyer will never even see them in person. Not exactly a shift in culture or anything.
A gold 18mm thick diver that goes down to 14,000ft is about as far from what I loved about the brand in the past as it gets. It signifies a shift that started with the two tone explorer and sea dweller and is now clearly their new direction. No thank you!
