just pick this 18038, ser 5,xxx,xxx today from local seller
I was looking at new sub either TT or ss , had hard time with $7K-$11K prices.
I sold a dj and TT daytona last year and wanted another Rolex watch in My collection.

We meet at Austin watch repair in Austin, Tx. couple hours ago.

They verified the watch is real, bracelet is real, movement is real, all good..except the seller told them he was selling the watch for $5,700 while having the watch checked out.

Since the watch did not have the papers or box, I know I could have gotten for $5500.: ...the store offered him to buy the watch from him at same price of $5700.

Any how , I had the dibbs on the watch , I went with the deal since every thing checked out to my sanctification other than the crystal has 3 nicks at 11.

all I can say is wow...this watch is nice and comfy.

I've thought about trading up the DD to the DDii, but I think I'd rather keep the YG in DD and do a DDii in WG, just exactly like Timmer's

When I purchased my 116718 from Oscar (bodybump) a year ago this pic I took was the first time I partially displayed my 18946 on TRF, however, after warming up to the forum and thread's dedicated to the Rolex day-date range I feel comfortable displaying Kurt Cobain (my 18946) to the TRF family
