I don't like the green links.. Not special site for a brand like that (or any other brand :) ).

I'd buy a Rolex, if.... I had everything I wated I had donated a billion to charity and one of my 4 waches died. But it's a pretty nice site.

I actually really think they should have used actionscript in that site. Woulda been a hit in the nineties.

I don't get what is so bad about it? Is it because it doesn't look like every other huge brand flash site out there or because its not web 2.0 enough? It gets the job done and looks good doing it. Yet I bet every visitor to that site is going to say "ewww that doesn't have enough actionscript in it!!"

**** this site. 1st it resizes my browser window. I maximized again and it resized it a 2nd time. Then it took me 5 seconds to figure out where is the navigation. By the time I went as deep as the "Fearless Beauty" **** with that ugly green link, I've closed it.

this site blows. not because they dont use enough actionscript or because it doesnt look web 2.0 enough - of course not, its not supposed to, but theres a lot of things screwed up with it. I know Im not the only person looking at this site on a slow connection and the preloaders are all messed up, seriously. plus some simple details like the links on the bottom are one pixel off on rollover and some pixelated parts... really weird that "rolex.com" is this poor quality...

I like the colour scheme - emerald green, black and gold is rather posh, I think.
Though, I still can't justify spending more than 20 for a watch.

Kinda weird... some parts are nice, but some parts look surprisingly unprofessional. It's like a Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde site...
Oh yeah... and I hate getting my browser resized. I feel violated.

Tee Hee. It tried to resize my browser window but was foiled by firefox tab browsing.Didn't even try to resize my :pleased: It recognized the terrifying Opera logo and realized it was useless. Don't really like the watches and I really don't like the site, slow and boring.

It both resized and moved my browser.. Running dual screen with lolifox(firefox) in windowed mode making the site unreadable I resize my browser and move it back to one screen and press english.. Can you guess what it does then? It resizes and moves the site, again! gadam.. Not that great site either :/

Yeah, guys, it sucks. For all the reasons above and more. As far as the client's concerned it'll be a catastrophic failure because all but the most dedicated fans of Rolex watches are gonna wait for those pages to download.
Has anyone been to casio.com? I haven't but I bet it works better. :lol:
Hmm... now that's an idea!

Checked casio.com out... just another "out of the box" catalogue site.
