Incoming

Fedex tracking says my new incoming will be delivered tomorrow. Guess I'll have to ensure I'm home for it's arrival.

Thanks gents, very different from what I would normally add to the collection.

A little bit influence from you Ken, Dalip & Dino. Felt like a little bling, but only a little.

Having to access the forum through my phone. Due to internet change over from the old house to new.

More soon Jules.

Watch arrived 12.30 EST today. It's amazing. I don't know how Rolex do this.

Internet is down, I'll upload pics the minute it's up.

It's all part the renovations. But we are not living in a building site. Just a few teething problems. If no internet for a few days is the worst problem
we've had. We don't have a problem.

More soon Jules

Okay. 12.30h yesterday Mr Fedex arrived with this:

Name:  RB 1.JPG
Views: 116
Size:  74.3 KB

Inside was this prefectly packaged watch

Name:  RB 3.jpg
Views: 116
Size:  90.3 KB


















My new 16713 GMT Root beer, It was a sunny day in Sydney yesterday and this watch just pops.

Name:  RB 4.JPG
Views: 116
Size:  87.2 KB

A quick wrist shot. These pics do not do this watch justice, and the little extra weight feels nice.

Name:  IMG_2637.jpg
Views: 117
Size:  85.7 KB

I'd like to thank all the forum members with Root beers for their great pics in recent times.

Cheers Jules
