: I don't think it is correct to think of the
: steel that Rolex as being " a grade
: above" Omega's steel. Rolex's steel is

: example, are you really concerned about
: intergranular corrosion after welding?
: That's what 316L is good at. How about
: corrosion resistance in hot acids? Most of
: us don't dip our wrists in such things. I
: think more has been made of than needs to

rolex uses a microstella adj. system rather than a regulator like omega?patek uses the same system as rolex. very superior form of regulation. rolex will barely depreciate and will never lose even close to half it's value. i own both and it really doesn't matter. pure fact is rolex is better.
