40th birthday watch

Just turned 40 on Sunday, I knew at the beginning of the year that I wanted a new watch to celebrate. Something that “felt” older, I wanted a datejust. I reached out to my AD in Feb and asked for this specific combination. To my surprise they called me in May, so I bought it and stored it in my safe deposit box. I wasn’t able to pick it up on Saturday since the bank was closed, so I celebrated without it. I was able to break away from work early today and pick it up.

I have to say so far I’m liking the dial and jubilee bracelet. Let’s see what I think in the long run. Also this is my first new from AD Rolex.

Beautiful. I would have picked it up on Friday so that I could have it on my wrist on Saturday, but you must have been busy. Enjoy it in good health.

Congrats and happy birthday! My 40th is coming up soon and just about the only thing that makes me happy about this "milestone" birthday is cheering myself up with a substantial watch purchase - like what you did.
