[PICS]The Rolex President | YG Oyster Day Date 40 Black Face Baquette Diamonds 228238

Hello Dear Friends,

A few days ago on my birthday, my new to me (2017) Yellow Gold Rolex Oyster Day Date 40 Presidential showed up. This is the 228238 reference with the black face and 10 baguette-cut diamonds configuration. I traded my Yellow Gold Daytona which I owned for a very short period of time (15 Months) toward this watch and couldn't be more happier.

I couldn't thank my jeweler enough Ms. Jenny Mao the owner and president of White Glove Watch Company. She made it too difficult to resist the deal. This is my second purchase from her and my god she has delivered on both ends. Enough with the talk and here are a few pictures.

Thanks,

The one I'd love to have is the Rose Gold 41m with Rubies. Hard to find and crazy markup.

Thank you kind sir. It's a Bentley Bentayga. Their lease deals these days are crazy. $1999/Month & 10% Down payment. No brainer!
