Jocke: I'm hoping you bring news that Rolex introduces a GMT with ceramic Pepsi/Coke bezel.....and/or with Jubilee bracelet.

Safe trip and enjoy!!

Hi Jocke:

The whole TRF community awaits your first pictures - thank you !

What time of day do you expect to be able to upload your first post? I live in GMT - 5:00 hours - might require that I get up very early in the morning, eh ?

Travel safe.

I look forward to see your report. Don't forget to take pictures of the new Rolex gadgets . Hope to see a new paperweight, maybe something like the old Baselworld 2006.
