Picked this up in Tokyo..

So without further adue the Japan only limited edition (300 pieces white dial and 300 pieces black dial).

Picked this up in Tokyo after calling all around. Once I found one I made a deposit and asked the salesmand to hold it. My Fiance had a trip to Tokyo so I tagged along to pick this up.

Enjoy.


Should I take the tape off?

The salesman who already had the sale in the bag told me that this black dial is the last limited edition TOG from Rolex Japan. Not that he need to sell it to me. I was already on board.

or not.


maybe a few more picks later. I am a pretty happy Wis. This Rolex is beautiful and wears well. On top of that the TOG has been continued, On top of that Rolex Japan made 300 white dial and 300 black dials to commemerate the end of the TOG. I was lucky enough to get one.

And yes i am wearing it . No safe queen. I will take good care of it and hopefully never have to sell.

Thanks for looking.

Tom
