Incoming Oyster Perpetual
It was a tough call but I decided on the Rhodium over the Blue, by a whisker, much like the poll results in my prior thread.
Here's the first pic, still stickered and unsized but I'll take care of that later today.

Thanks to DavidSW for yet another perfect transaction.

Nice I'm considering the 34 mm op with green as I have a smaller wrist at 6.4 to 6.5.inches

It sure was a tough choice, but like many have said, either one was a winner.
