A Special & very rare incoming
Hi folks,
Just wanted to share a very special incoming I had the pleasure of receiving recently... So we celebrated my birthday a couple weeks ago and my daughter realized at that moment that she forgot and wanted to get me a gift... she immediately went to her room and got to work! She called up the AD and 15 minutes later, my new Rolex arrived in my hands!  (my daughter is 7)It must be a pre Basel early release because I haven’t seen this new ref yet.. the black numerals are new and even has the new “Rolex” font on there (trust me it’s there) It also has the newer thinner bezel and new 38mm-40mm oval shape Rolex recently patented  All in all, I don’t know how she managed it, but I’m a super happy daddy! My Princess is the best!  Now what’s an incoming without pictures.. also a side by side of my new favorite trio! Thanks for reading!

Nice one. You can put some epoxy over, make some holes and slap in a quartz movement. Then it will become even better. ;-)

That is SO cool! What a fantastic gift from your daughter. I think that watch is the most valuable (sentimental) out of your trio, and I'm sure it will never leave your collection!
Happy Birthday!

These posts make me wish I had kids....
Until I realize I’d have to spend a chunk of my Rolex money on said kids  Still, when I read posts like this I can feel the love which is so endearing. Thank you for taking the time to share
