Had a pleasant accident
My niece is getting married and I accompanied her fiance to do a little watch shopping. He's mulling over things he looked at. I went back today and picked up this datejust. Ooop:

Looks like blue, and very nice. DJ's on an oyster are a good look.

Hopefully at Bernie Robbins in St. Davids or Benari's in Newtown Square - both great staffs and elegant stores.

Congrats ! Great combination of SS and distinctive Rolex blue dial. One of my favorites.
