Now, I'm Like a Kid Waiting on Christmas

I'm now waiting on my (practically) new 114060 to arrive. This will be my first Rolex. This forum was invaluable in helping me decide what model watch I wanted and what to look for in a seller. Once it safely arrives and is on my wrist, I will post pics and leave some very positive feedback in the who's who section.
This forum is great. When I showed my wife the thread of TRFers posting pics of their watches next to their BGE's , she chuckled "Clearly, they're your people"

Early congrats!

She'll get sick of it, eventually :) My wife knows what the soft cornflower glow on my phone means. "Which one are you looking at now?"

The world is of course full of beautiful watches, but there's just something amazing about the 114060, the original Submariner. Congrats on a phenomenal choice!
