Stinger390X Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Check the glossary section. Lots of pictures and of course "Coops" contributions.I myslf own the Rolex Oyster Day Date timer and it's my prized possession. I am looking for an Ebel but they are very difficult to find.

Administrators timm525 Posted April 6, 2010 Administrators Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 I started to create a glossary thread on this one but never finished. Here is some info I gathered but do not know to source to give proper credit.Rolex Day-Date 18 Carat Gold, With Presidential Bracelet and the champagne (Gold) coloured dial. It features the concealed clasp that opens rather easily in fights (Golden Triangle Part 1). It also features the "Cyclops" lens that magnifies the date making it easier to read. This model displays not only the date but also what day it is. This model was very popular in the 1980's and features heavily in Miami Vice. It would have cost around $16,000 in 1984. It has been updated since then and now comes with the white dial as standard. Ebel Sports Classique. Stainless steel and 40 micron gold plated parts.Features a quartz movement and very modern sports styling. Features a date display. Popular in the 1980's however has recently been overtaken in the mid range sports watch market by makes like Tag Heuer. It has been replaced recently by the more striking Ebel Wave models.

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Thanks Coope&7Burnett. I looked at the site yout posted for Rolex replicas. The quality looks heaps better than the one I found.The quality is superb! But.....it is somewhat on the expensive side. They have the ROLEX PRESIDENTIAL WATCH, and the ROLEX DATE JUST, just like Sonny wore!Hey, you get what you pay for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aussiefan Posted April 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 You're %100 correct. The replicas I found were, roughly $100, compared to $500. But the quality looks far better in the site you posted. For that much difference I would rather the quality. Plus it comes with a reference.The old saying "you buy cheap, you buy twice" or 3 or 4 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 http://replicapark.com/p/9933/ROLEX-YG-Jubilee-Gold-Sticks-Swiss-Eta-2836-2.htmThis is one of the season one watches he wore (like in MADE FOR EACH OTHER). It's a Date Just with a Jubilee band stick markers, and a gold face.This is a SWISS version, which is EXCELLENT QUALITY!There are better copies, but not at THIS price. This is VERY reasonable for the quality. Some copies can get to be $2,000 - $5,000 and up depending on the amount of Gold used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 http://replicapark.com/p/5323/RDJLD0042-FG-Gold-Dial-Sticks-Markers-Eta-2671-2.htmThis is the version from season 1 that Sonny wore in the Pilot episode, and many, many other season 1 episodes. This is the style I prefer, and own.Gold dial, Presidental band, with stick markers.If you wore this into a ROLEX dealer on your wrist, due to the fine craftsmenship and the real swiss movement, it's NOT possible to tell it's not the genuine article. They would absolutely believe it's real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kavinsky Posted April 12, 2010 Report Share Posted April 12, 2010 Well Thanks to Jim Zubiena we know atleast one expensive one got damaged during the first season during Calderone's Return when a squib went off prematurely during the gunfight at the end blowing off the face of Sonny's watch which I think was this Rolex http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Image:MV-BRE10-11.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an EBEL 1911 Chronograph with the classic wave band with a 40 mm case.The replica Rolex that Don was wearing was in season 1.The picture is not a Rolex. The photo must be from season 3.
