Incoming - it pops!

After 2 months of waiting, I got the call!

I never thought it would look this good, very refreshing dial
This is the 36mm for my wife. I'm still waiting for my 41mm.

It's so different from what you expect from a regular Rolex, I love it.

I really understand the crazy speculation around its grey market price: it is simply astonishing

That does look mesmerizing. The more I look at the new OP colors the more I want one

Did they give you a rough idea when to expect the 41?

They told me the waiting time is a bit longer for the 41mm (up to 6 months or so if you fit within their criteria), but I suppose they'll favour those customers who haven't received any OP yet before I get offered one.

Congrats !

Would you mind sharing your waiting time and if you have a particularly good relationship with your AD?

I have a wonderful SA, I just asked for this OP only a week, she told me that I got lucky, it just came in so I can have it.

I think it depends on luck, I am still waiting for Sky Dweller blue dial (one year).

Not a huge OP fan - but do like the turquoise and yellow - but not enough to pay a penny over MSRP for one. Perhaps when the hysteria dies down...

I really understand the crazy speculation around its grey market price: it is simply astonishing
I think that 36mm looks perfect for your wrist size...perhaps you should keep that one...congrats
