We had a great visit from Nancy's son Grant (ggbrown here) last weekend. He'd come back East for a quick visit. While he was here, we took him to our AD where his Sub was waiting for him, just returned from the Toronto RSC. He got to be the first one to see it fresh from it's overhaul.

The only downside, the diver's extension link won't stay closed. Rolex gave me the address of the Winnipeg AD, who have a certified watchmaker on staff. He'll be taking it there to sort it out.

Here's a couple of pix outside the AD, and one of us at home with Nancy and her Cellini. I'm the old f@rt.

Nice pics Al thanks for sharing hope that the issue with the extension link will be sorted out

Great pics and a neat idea having Grant be the first to see the watch. I know he will enjoy it for years to come.
