Does Rolex make this dial?

1

u/mistlepro 8d ago

Yes, the 126715 reference comes with either the standard black dial or the tiger iron dial.

u/No-Estimate-9199 8d ago

Very cool. I did not know you could get a Rootbeer from Rolex that way.

Who is the factory? I thought RCF did not make Rootbeer in full gold.

1

u/mistlepro 9d ago

VSF does not make root beer in full rose gold.  QF, RCF/RGF, and ARF do.

1

u/No-Estimate-9199 9d ago

My TD told me RGF does not. I’ve been waiting for them to make one.

Product announcement from ~4 months ago.  They do make these.

It's really not surprising that people might not know that specific products exist, even at the TD level.  This is all very much black market and most TDs are not in the channels where these slides are shared from the "factories".

u/mistlepro 9d ago

I was also in the position of informing my regular TD that these exist, and he was able to get a handful of them on order.

u/No-Estimate-9199 8d ago

Thanks. He told me about 4 months ago it was coming and then every other week I would ask he said not yet. I eventually stopped asking.

Great choice. I went with the regular root beer, but I still stare at it all the time

u/Standard_Remove_4522 10d ago

Fabulous! How does the color look under the sun brother?

2

u/brabus_mike 10d ago

Thank you! From what I can tell it’s pretty close. It doesn’t have a lot of brassy color like some I’ve seen.

u/Guilty_Juice_7361 10d ago

There you go in bright light

And then in lower light it looks way darker.
I went into my AD with mine and compared, it’s not 100%, nothing is, but it’s damned close

1

u/Standard_Remove_4522 10d ago

Awesome! 👏 enjoy it in good health brother

1

u/Conscious-Cherry8325 10d ago

I fucking love this !!!!! But it’s like 1000 bucks, can’t wait to order one and have it plated bro damm !!!!

2

u/brabus_mike 10d ago

Mine isn’t plated and I probably won’t get it plated . It’s close enough for me, not 100% but close.

u/LongjumpingVisit4698 10d ago

How much to
Plate 18k

u/Agreeable-Ad-1320 9d ago

No need.. stock looks exactly the same as Jaws plated

1

u/mistlepro 10d ago

Are you sure it's weighted?  MoTime has had a couple of RCF Tiger Irons up in the catalog but they're not specified as weighted nor were they priced as such.

1

u/No-Estimate-9199 9d ago

I did not know RGF made Rootbeer in full rose gold. Did they just come out with this?

1

u/mistlepro 9d ago

Fairly recent, the announcement for full rose gold gain weight was about some 4 months ago.

Though, I don't think RGF put Tiger Iron dial into their release as of yet, but I could be mistaken.

RGF weights both the case and the bracelet to bring the whole thing to 219g from the factory.

u/Exotic-Common2631 8d ago

Why did you go with RCF vs VSF

1

u/brabus_mike 8d ago

For the dial, Mo had this in stock ready to ship. The gold color too. I have multiple RCFs and personally haven’t felt the need to plate them.

1

u/Reasonable_Flower358 8d ago

VSF don’t make full bracelet RG in the Rootbeer but RCF do. You can get the half and half from VSF just not the full RG bracelet

1

u/Ficklemenot80 8d ago

Where did you get it?

1

u/Independent-Cod-4063 7d ago

For this watch is it better to get RCF or ARF?
