Got The Call!!!!! My wife is the best and understands my addiction!!!!

Early last week my AD texts me and said. We have a DSSD Blue arriving later this week.
They will call you when it arrives.
Thursday I'm flying to Texas for work and when after landing I check voice mail and there it is. The store manager said I am first on their list if I want it.
I text my wife for approval and she said " it that's what you want go ahead"!!!!
Problem, I won't be back until Sunday morning, my awesome wife goes Friday after work and picks it up for me!!!!
So here it is.

Beautiful watch! Congrats. Since we are talking about wives, My wife asked me to drive her down to 'some secret' place day before yesterday. I knew the direction we were going was leading to KOP (King of Prussia mall) , my guess was a LV wallet. But to my surprise, we were in Tourneau and she bought be a GMT Master 2. I think its called BLNR(Blue/black Bezel). Excuse me as I'm still getting used to the Rolex terminology on this forum :) So this is how my Rolex journey starts!

Outstanding in every respect.
I picked mine up on Monday morning as a wedding gift from my fiancé.

I note your box and accompanying bits and pieces are not like mine. Interesting.
Was there a new style bezel protector?

Enjoy that baby

The old 'if it's what you want' trick. In my experience this ends with me getting busted. Lol. Beautiful watch, wear it in good health.
