So excited to have been offered this by my AD. I didn’t have to wait too long either. Just about 2 months on the wait list! Maybe the SS drought is ending soon?!

Major score. Welcome to our cult, I mean “club”.


I notice in your pic you also have perfect alignment bezel, crown, markers, etc.. all the way through to the bottom “Swiss Made”. Perhaps Rolex has raised quality control to the next level? It’s ocd but it is noticeable. No longer to fear the loupe with a new Rolex.


This is what I am talking about.

Good eye! I didn’t think to check that out until you mentioned it. It is pretty dead on!

Thanks for pointing this out. Let us hope that Rolex actually has been upping quality control.

Don’t think Rolex has raised QC. Here’s a pic of my BLRO I picked up last week. Doesn’t bother me too much, but it’s something I’ll address during service.
