A solid-gold watch is one thing, and in the past, Rolex has had the good decency to at least offer its bigger gold watches with the absurdly comfortable Oysterflex rubber strap. No such luck here, and the bracelet, while as comfortable as the Oyster always is, adds dramatic heft to the watch. The one advantage is that you don’t get that top-heavy feeling you do when a gold watch is on a rubber or leather strap — the bracelet provides a sense of balance around the wrist. The one thing that always impresses in person (and subsequently on the wrist) is the Oysterlock clasp with the Glidelock toolless adjustment mechanism. It’s so precise and easy to use, and it looks much more mechanical than it is. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t spend more time than necessary playing with it.
