INCOMING for her….

Got the call for my wife’s first Rolex - 36mm Datejust Pink Roman Numeral Dial with Diamond Bezel

Wasn’t a completely unexpected call - she picked this one out last summer - had to wait to October to put a special order in as this is not a reference they receive - was told it would arrive sometime between January & August……

Nonetheless we were still excited for the call - it’s a beautiful piece and it looks amazing on my wife…..

We were offered one of the beautiful new floral dial 31mm DJ right just prior to ordering - it really was a beautiful piece and tough to turn down - my wife really preferred the larger dial and Roman numerals to her better see and read the time - even though she has tiny wrists!

Was shocked at what a behemoth my Sub is next to it….

Cheers everyone!

I like the six and nine roman numerals are in diamond as well, unique looking. Congrats!

Great point! I didn’t think of that until you mentioned it but you are absolutely right - I have to give her a lot of credit - she knew precisely what she wanted - pretty much designed the look with my help and didn’t want anything else & was willing to wait (in a sweet way - she’s the type to be grateful for it without the diamonds or just a piece in general)

That's a beautiful watch! I absolutely love the diamond Romans coupled with the diamond bezel. I see many happy memories created whilst wearing your watches together!

Well done sir!

Thanks - I encouraged her on the diamond Roman numerals - I know she loves diamonds - I mean I don’t know what girl doesn’t - and thought we should go big or go home ….


Appreciate the sweet sentiment as well

Cheers!
