Finally took delivery to complete my trifecta of Rolexes...
Finally!!!
It took some time to move things around financially, sell the Panerai 312, save a few bucks and then get the new Rolex... not to mention all the research that went into this purchase. So without further adieu, here is my newest and likely last Rolex (I'm getting married in 3 months and I need to be saving for a house) for the foreseeable future:

Congrats Joey!
We all know its either GMT2C or SS Daytona... I go for Gmt since you mention something about selling 312 and save some bucks.

It's got PCL, so it has to be a Daytona, GMT IIc or DJ I/II. Given that the OP wears a Milgauss GV I'm going to guess that it's not the DJ I. I'm going with GMT.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes!!
It was between the GMTIIC and this... and this won out! For the 3rd time, the GMTIIC lost out.

Joey...didn't you already have a Daytona? Did I miss something?
Looks GREAT BTW. I am between that and a GMTIIC for my next one as well...However, I need to go on a watch diet for a while... |
