…big birthday so going to the AD today!

i haven’t done an ‘incoming thread’ for many years, for whatever reason. however as today is a big birthday…i will be going to the AD later to pick up a grail reference (well to me anyways).

i am just a regular guy with average means, so getting this Rolex is a big day for me and i would like to share my day with you!

thank you for reading.

Happy birthday; I've got a big one coming up as well. I understand the allure of a grail for a significant event! I'm anxious to see the incoming! Congratulations in advance!

…i normally dislike such threads but here i am posting the same nonsense. why not just post when the damn watch is here! anyways i’m blaming the lack of sleep.

this reference can be found in the ‘professional watches’ section of the catalogue (hint). i know if i post up my collection it would be easy to guess!
