Congrats on bringing home the bacon. A 10-yr financial project that weathered the financial crisis is a proud achievement - so many projects never survived past '08.
And now you have a crown for that achievement!

I am always interested in the stories that inspired watch purchases. Yours is one of dedication and sacrifice; a Rolex well earned. Congratulations on an excellent choice.

Gorgeous watch man! That is going to be my long term goal watch, either in Platinum or White gold with either a black dial or a silver dial. Sometimes I think the DD dial looks best when you match the bracelet and case with it. But then I go back to your exact setup it looks amazing. Congratulations!

Beautiful, I am quite tempted on white gold! I think having white and yellow could be the solution to most situations, wear in good health
