incoming root beer

Got the call from my AD they have a root beer for me. I am really excited. I live in a small town so they are few and far between at my AD. I am an airline pilot and January is my 20th anniversary with my airline and I have been telling my AD I was hoping to get this watch for the occasion. This will be my first two tone watch and I am looking forward to the variety it will add to my collection.

I do have purchase history with this AD but not a Rolex. Some other watches and also jewelry for my wife.

Would love to see a picture if it in the cockpit:-)

You know, with SS Rolex steel models one can't plan a gift on precise dates. A Birthday is when the AD calls to say the watch is in, not the actual birth date :-)
