Here are a couple of Rolex projects I recently completed. One with a Black Sea wave and Hebrew theme requested by the customer and the other is a vintage Rolex with a heart, wings-n-wheels, and a bear also requested by the customer. I never know what I will be engraving next!

BTW, the vintage Rolex stainless is much harder to engrave! The more current 900 series stainless is better IMO.

Great job.
The inscription in Hebrew is a prayer. The font is flawless.

Thank you Stefan. Yes, the customer sent me a complete prayer and I had to break it down and fit it onto the links a few lines at a time. Doing the layout from right to left had me confused for awhile :)

Do you have a block for attaching bracelets? Or do you put it on sealing wax? Stainless steel is a very unpleasant material. Especially old alloys, they were fused with solid metals.
I watched your work, it's yours
not the first hours. Do you spend a lot of time engraving some hours?

Really nice David ! The lettering must have been a headache, so similar, repetitive and precise. Thanks for posting. Your work is always a treat to see, Mark
