New owner and new to forum!

Hey guys and gals! I’m a longtime watch lover who owns several timepieces. And while I bought my wife a DJ32 years ago, as well as a recent two tone sub purchase for my brother, I’ve never owned Rolex for myself.

After recently identifying the Root Beer ( just from pics, never seen one in person) as the one I wanted, my AD got one in literally less than a week after I let him know I wanted one! I bought it sight unseen. Ever since I got it, I believe it’s the most beautiful watch I’ve ever seen on my wrist! The perfect balance between sport and dress!

The minute I put it on, I believed it was better quality than my Omegas. The biggest problem is, now I want a Sky Dweller!!

(Sorry no pic. I’m traveling and for some reason my phone won’t let me post it.)

Congratulations on your new Roof Beer GMT (CHNR)! Rolex has a beautiful Everose gold which goes great with stainless steel (or Oystersteel as Rolex now calls it). Btw you need at least 10 posts before images can be posted. Look forward to your wrist pics. Welcome to the TRF community! Cheers!
