First Piece
Picked up my first Rolex, the BLNR and Im loving it more than anything. I've had it for about a week and I've tried to keep all the stickers on it but as careful as I have been those PCLs are still getting hairline scratches, and I'm ok with it, I really thought I was going to feel terrible once they started, but who cares!!!

I was in Dubai and I finally pulled the trigger at the Rolex store in the Mall of the Emirates and I got it for cheaper than anything I've seen in the States.

I'm actually heading back tomorrow for another 3 months and I'm scared I might add a sibling. Lol

Nice piece. For the benefit of those of us who can't travel to Dubai, what's the discount buying in Dubai vs. the US?
