Something different..

As many of you know, I am mainly a Vintage Rolex collector, however I have always liked the original 5402 A Series Royal Oak. I have been searching for a crisp example for the last year, and decided to buy something to hold me over until I find that perfect example! Special thanks to DavidSW!

Congratulations. Terrific watch. Michael, if I can ask, what is your wrist size?

Congrats!!! So do you think you'll still be searching for a 5402 now that you own the 15202?
