Thanks to my awesome SA, wifey has her first Rolex today! She’s never been that into watches, but I may have created a monster with this one because she loves it!

Had my SA call her and say a watch came in for me as a surprise, but when we got there it was hers. Totally caught her off guard and it was fun to surprise her.

Yep same one; belated birthday present since it didn’t quite become available in time for that, but worth the wait I’d say based on her reaction!

Congrats on the piece for your lady she’s gonna love that I’m sure!

Thanks David! This dial is really cool in the metal. Under brighter light it becomes a very light shade of pink but in lower indirect light the color feels a little deeper. Plus diamonds are never a bad thing on a ladies watch lol.
