My first Rolex

My new datejust. Absolutely marvelous piece. In perfect harmony with my piano.

Hi guys, thanks for all the kind words. Yes the date will turn to red and black alternately. Even number black and odd number red. Date changes at approximately 2-2.5 minutes past midnight. Check with my quartz watch it gains 2 seconds per day. Very impressive piece. Brings lot of joys.

Another shot to "show off" my beauty. The black dial and ss and WG bezel blend well with the black and white keys. It has been three week now still loving it.
