How Stylish ideas for your Rolex help you look better?
In this article, you can find some interesting ideas for making a Rolex watch by using a little creativity. Making it yourself offers you an opportunity to express your personality and also as rolex buyers, it can save you a lot of money as well.
In these article, I’ll present you with some stylish ideas for creating your own Rolex watch:
1 – The bracelet:
The most important part of the watch is the bracelet. You can look for a silvertone or gold tone metal bracelet which will be attached to the watch using screws and which is going to be polished in order to get that shiny appearance of a real Rolex watch. You can also look for a metallic strap that will fit your wrist and that can be adjusted whenever needed. Just make sure it fits you perfectly.
2 – The dial:
Besides the bracelet, I think the most important part of a Rolex watch is the dial. You can either buy a used dial which has lost its shine or you can choose to have your own dial made by using special materials such as resin or plexiglass. There are different techniques to do that and they all need some experience, so they shouldn’t be done by somebody who doesn’t know what he’s doing. You may want to do some research about creating your own Rolex watch and see what would be better for you.
3 – The bezel:
Another part of the Rolex watch which can be bought or created is the bezel. On a real Rolex watch, there are two different types of bezels: the monobloc and the Triplock. The Triplock is more preferred by watchmakers because it doesn’t need to be screwed while the monobloc has only one screw. You can choose to have a monobloc bezel if it fits your needs, but you can also buy a Triplock in order to make the assembly easier. Take into consideration the size of your watch and take an accurate measurement to make sure the bezel fits correctly when attached.
4 – The back:
The back is pretty important for every type of watch. On a Rolex watch there are different types of backs where you can see the movement of the watch or which are transparent so that you can check out the inner workings of your watch. For example, Rolex has created two types of movements: Day-Date and Day-Date II which both use different architectures and mechanisms. You can choose which is best for you and then order a back in the same material as your case.
5- The crown:
The crown of every watch has a special function, so you need to make sure you get it right. On Rolex watches there are two types of crowns: the standard and the non-standard. The standard one has a triangle shape and is used for changing time or date; while the non-standard triangular crown can be screwed into in order to make a time setting more accurate and personalized. You may think that this last detail is a pretty simple thing to do, but if you pay attention to it, you will see that it’s not as easy as it seems.
Conclusion:
There is evidence that it takes so much time to create a Rolex watch, especially if you don’t have any experience. So, you can take advantage of this list of ideas and see which one fits your necessities and needs the best. Since there are so many different ideas to create a Rolex watch, I hope you will enjoy them all! Creating your own Rolex is not an easy thing to do, but if you want the best results and a beautiful looking watch, it’s worth the effort.
