Icon7 Thanks Rolex!

I called Rolex last week to request a polish cloth, which I didn't get when I bought my GMTII C. Besides the cloth they sent me an extra cloth, the GMTII C manual (I have two now), The Rolex Oyster Collection Book and the Price List. JJ the Bluesy and the Platty pic are for you!
The Rolex chocolate was a gift from my AD. Thanks Ron! BTW the chocolates are gone, the kids ate them all before I say "don't eat".

That cloth looks a lot bigger than the one that came with my GMT, based on it size compared to the manual. Mine is about 2/3 the size of the manual. I will have to make that call.

I got the same box.

I just wonder, whats inside?



Thank you, thank you.



Ouups, a hologram.



What should I do with it? Keep it or pull it off?



Ok I pull out The Idaho Hologram Remover.



No problem with correct tools, it will be in one piece.



This looks real nice.



Respect.



Should I dare to take one.



Of course, I´m no sissy. LOL



Mmmmmmmm.



Melting like butter, taste like the look of the YMII. LOL

That's right Fraser, it's not healthy to stand between a woman and her chocolate!
