Kim's New OP!

Hello again all! Got my wife that new OP finally! Check out the pics and let us know what you think. Bought it from the same AD here in Honolulu. James (The Asst. Manager) gave me a great deal on it since I just bought my Explorer II from him as well. This is my wife's (Kim) first Rolex and she is very excited about it. She fell in love with it the first time she saw it a few days ago, so I told her we would crunch some numbers to see what we could. Two days later and it has a new home! Good times in Hawaii!

That's Hawaii for you, always relaxed and extremely friendly folks, even in the "high end" shops. Of course there are the snobs too, but mostly the spirit of Aloha reigns supreme.

Very nice Nick. Kim looks like she's enjoying herself and has caught the Aloha spirit as well as a striking watch; digging the black w/ pink hour markers.

Wow you got his attention just with a simple attire.
Many AD's will frown.
Good for James to spot a serious customer.
