Incoming......

After just purchasing within the last 3 months an SD4K which I adore, I am now waiting on my next Rolex. Getting it on Monday.

I think I've caught the bug......

Can't wait for my BLNR 😊

Congratulations. A BLNR will also be my next. I find myself having to resist the urge to just go but it

The Rolex bug is real......and it's hard to get over.....seems to never be completely cured....can only be temporarily suppressed if caught.....Congrats on a fine choice though, seems like a lot of us think alike....those were my 1st 2 modern Rolex also.

BLNR almost cured me. But I just couldn't get over the Smurfmariner, so now I have a new incoming! xD

Thanks to all for the congrats in advance. I'll be posting some wrist shots soon. Not getting it till the 16th of May!
Was in the US on business and went to two stores that had it in stock which was surprising compared to what I experience in England. Hadn't seen one in the flesh other than at Baselworld. I'm only able to get one as my AD is holding it for me.

To anyone on the fence about this piece , it truly is a beautiful watch and pictures struggle to convey its elegance. Go for it, you won't be disappointed.

Will post pics when i get them.

Cheers 😊
