Opinions needed please, on Rolex watch!

[Pure-LA]

This is a photo exactly like, one of the small older Rolex's that I have had for many years. They all live in the vault, because I feel they look like old lady watches. The face is 26mm.

I want to bring this one into 2011

What do you think, if I remove the gold bracelet and replace it with a custom made (black) double strap, like the Hermes double wrap strap.

I wanted to wear it with my black and gold, Hermes Revale bracelet.

I think your watch is beautiful just as it is and you can still accessorize it however you want to "update" the look by pairing it with different bracelets but I think a classic like this never goes out of style!

I agree, keep it as is. A Rolex never goes out of style.

I wouldn't change anything. Rolexes are classic as they are.

I can't even imagine changing it at all. It's like painting your black Ferrari blue because you didn't like the color. I say wear it like a classic should be worn.

I agree with the other posters. It is a beautiful watch! You can change the look by what other accessories you wear with it.

Good luck!

Oh please don't change your watch inwould love an all gold rolex but only have a SS, your watch is gorgeous & I would wear it with a couple of yg thin bracelets & I agree a Rolex never goes out of fashion.

I also agree!! keep it as it is!

This really is a classic. I also would not change it. I have the same feeling about a few of my older rolex's. I have changed to diamond bezels, or changed the face to another color. However, stay true to the Rolex. They just will never go out of style.

Don't change it! You can always layer it with more modern pieces for a younger look. With an Hermes Rivale, it would look great.

Elle Macpherson layers beaded cord bracelets with her classic gold Rolex for an eclectic, bohemian look.

I agree it's beautiful as-is
If you feel the smaller size makes it look a bit dated, then maybe you can wear it for dress rather than everyday

You all are the best, thank you for making me feel better
I won't change it...
I will layer, and wear it for evening!

I wouldn't change the strap-it is beautiful as it is, and wouldn't look like a Rolex if you changed it.

Rolex are classic!!
