Hello,
My name is Noah. I go by Beancooker on forums (used to be a coffee roaster).
I joined this forum 9 years ago when I found a vintage Rolex at a shop and picked it up for $100. You all were really helpful in helping me identify the watch and pointing me in the direction of service, etc.
My wife and I are going to be celebrating our tenth anniversary pretty soon so we decided to get matching Rolex watches. We both agreed on the Yachtmaster in Rolesor with white dials.
I was skeptical about purchasing from a watch shop across the country from me, but I found a thread here about Topnotch Watch. The reviews about Scott were fantastic, so I went ahead with the purchase. It was a smooth fantastic transaction. The watches were authenticated by a certified Rolex watchmaker at Ben Bridge yesterday shortly after they arrived.
While I haven't been an active member, I have been lurking for years and your forum has been a huge help to me.
Thank you!

Here are a few pics of what we chose...

I am not certain, but I think the black markers are black onyx. The dial does have lume. If you look VERY closely at the eight markers that aren't 12,3,6,9, on the inside of the marker there is a very small triangle of lume that is pretty much invisible, unless you're really looking for it.

Thank you to everyone for the welcoming comments and the positive feedback on our timepieces and congratulations on our upcoming anniversary. I'm beside myself I'm so happy.
