Incoming!!

After 8 months, my incredible AD surprised me with this beautiful piece today. Love the new Mark 2 dial.

Very nice. Great to see watches landing from ADs. I'm not a "green" person so this one was never on my list but green & Rolex are a logical pairing.

My AD did say inventory is improving. I think the uncertainty in the market, an election year, & dropping secondary prices have driven away most flippers. Hopefully, the calls will be coming more frequently for everyone.

I think thats spot on, you can almost feel the hype is over!! I hope there are so many burnt figures out there! Even the Ice Blue Daytona which I think went to 100k+ you can now get for only a little over list

Got mine this month. Won’t post a photo as it’s the same as that. Plus I don’t want a stream of posts regurgitating congrats.
I will say the m2 bezel is night and day better.

At first I was adamant I preferred the MK1 when this brighter green was announced. Now that I’m used to it , I actually think I like the MK2 mo bettah’

Great watch and congrats !!

Thanks for all the messages. I originally wanted the Mark 1, but I do love how the Mark 2 bezel looks outside.

The slimmer lug case is also better balanced than the rather clumsy super case.
Add to that that power reserve hike, and it’s a banger.

Mine alternates with the 36 Explorer 124270 which is worn at work.

That’s a great Rolex duo. Cheers!

Congrats, OP the 12 series is such a great wearing experience. The MK2 LV is the best current Sub IMHO.
