2015 Basel Rolex preview event in Miami

[riseboi]

Had the opportunity to stop by the Rolex event tonight at my local AD.

A few thoughts:
- Was pleasantly surprised how much I liked the 39mm OP. Tried on the blue, grape, and charcoal dial. Would make a great casual/daily watch, IMO
- Love the change to 40mm with the Day Date. The proportions just felt "right" in comparison to the 41mm.
- Really, really like the new Yachtmaster. It felt like it wore "smaller" than 40mm. I think due to the black bezel and black oysterflex. Really liked the "wings" (as the Regional Rolex manager called them) on the underside of the oysterflex band. Asked him about the magnifier and he remained confident it was going to remain the same as on the prototype at the event tonight.

Pics added. I apologize in advance for the quality. The over head lighting didn't help. Kinda wish I took more pics, but I didn't want to be a heel while others were waiting to look at pieces.
