Hi,
New member on the forum so be gentle please.
I just collected my Xmas present(s) to myself this year and I am extremely happy with both peices (DD40 + BLRO) and the service from my AD!
I did create a thread about how i came to acquire these pieces(in particular the BLRO), but nobody commented on it lol the link for it is below

https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=645945

I shall try and upload a few pics now!

Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year!

very nice and great collection. You must be very happy. Some people will be waiting for a long time (on the so called waiting list) for the BLRO.

Great great double pick-up and thanks for sharing the link to your previous post. Funny how things work out, when spending some serious coin. Did you manage to haggle a little on the price for the DD or MRSP?

Enjoy the watches and happy holidays
