Hiatus is over.... green incoming

It’s been 2.5 years since purchasing my last new Rolex. With the current state of affairs, my attention was turned to other brands and hanging out in the other TRF subforums.

While at the beach this summer, however, I got an itch for the LV. Thanks to my wonderful AD team, here she is. As others have said, hard to photograph how dynamic the dial is. All past concerns about this SubC being “too green” vanish when it’s on the wrist.

Happy Friday!

Thanks everyone!

Lume is the normal blue , giving it a funky look in dim light when you can see the blue lume against the green bezel/dial. I’ll try to get a good pic when I’m home after lighting it up w my UV flashlight .

In the mean time, caught a decent pic of the sunburst effect on the way into work this morning

Thanks for lume shot. So all new Rolex have day glow blue lume it seems. Love the blue on my new BLNR. It would have been really cool if the lume was green or does everyone think that would be too much green?
