After PP, ALS, AP etc Finally a Rolex
For many years, I have resisted purchasing a Rolex.. not sure why just historically was not as excited with Rolex.. Just being honest. I have grown more fond of the brand. Their were four Rolexes I had my eye on from time to time-- YMII, YM, Daytona and Deepsea Blue.
Well I finally bit the bullet and pulled the trigger on the Deepsea Blue Diver. I just love the blue dial. Best blue color I have seen. I admit, I was concerned because it is heavy and thick but after reading other experiences here and talking with a friend who loves his--- I realized it was worth giving it a try. It does balance well and I love the way Rolex makes their bracelets. So easy to size and their micro adjust is just so easy to use. I have a small wrist and had to remove 4 bracelet links and after playing around with the micro adjust find it fits well. May take a little time to get used to its height and weight but again i have owned 44mm PAMs that I was pleased with the fit, and I have an ALS datograph-- which is also heavy and I have no problem wearing at all. |

So you got your Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren in garage and you bought a tank? Congrats!
IMO, the best Rolex if your wrist can accommodate it. |
