My first NOS SS from my AD!

My salesman wears this watch. It’s a GMT I didn’t have. I asked if they had any in the back. The last time I was in picking up my 116610LV. He said “no,” at the time but then I got a call from him. Turns out they have had one in the safe they had been keeping back. He talked them into selling it to me so here it is.

Too early to call it NOS?

Nevertheless, congrats on a great piece! Enjoy it

That’s a nice find, not seeing NIB versions coming from ADs very often any longer. Congrats!

Thanks guys. I feel like I stole it at $8,400. I really appreciate the call from my sales guy. He’s been taking good care of me. Calling me on nice SS pieces like this one I hadn’t even enquired about.

My first NOS SS from my AD!

Awesome! That was my first and only Rolex for a long time. The best looking of the modern GMTs, IMO.
