Having fun with it....

Took a spin by the rolex boutique that opened up here relatively recently while my wife did some shopping... She tried on a few pieces as well!



I liked this one very much...



Ready for my next incoming which will be tomorrow (not the SkyD). Will be reporting on Instagram as well!

As I said, having fun with this hobby our ours.

Be well folks.

Thanks Ken! I hear you and I am no longer considering a SkyD but I did want to see this configuration in the flesh and if I were to have any it would be this one. Nice to treat yourself at hermes! Cheers

How'd u like the WG skyd ?
I went today also to check it out because by pics I fell in love with it

Bug when I tried it on.. I liked it but didn't love it

So I changed my mind back to the BLNR
But didn't get that either lol, ended up leaving with something I personally thought was hideous by pics I saw online here

The SkyD was OK but nothing to die for unfortunately. I had higher expectations for it. What did you get?? Exciting.

Man, that SKD is super sweet Thomas. I say pull the trigger!

As for the incoming, let's see... a YG Daytona perhaps with a PN dial?

Yeah me too !

By the pics the WG skyd was killer I was pretty sold but when I tried it on, I was a little disappointed

Surprisingly, I ended up getting what I thought was ugly from pics.. But after trying it on ..
