Well done that's lovely. I have just got my first rolex two weeks ago. So I am just wanting to see people that are at their end watch.

A truly memorable and extremely happy day. Will never forget the feeling of finally obtaining my grail. A once in a lifetime moment.

I like Eric Chans sentiment that achieving a grail is a once in a lifetime moment. Too many people seem to obtain a new "grail" every year. That is not a grail. It's just a watch you want a lot.

Figuring out what your "true love" is in anything in life is a hard thing.. and a very fortunate occurrence. In watch terms, I will probably never have one grail since I love too many... so the journey continues!


These 2 are probably grail territory for me :-)

Thanks, Neil.

Love your grails. Is the rose gold a sign of things to come?
