So after careful consideration i ended up getting this as my first Rolex and am 120% sure that this is the watch i was supposed to have (i just didn't know it until yesterday). I am so glad i got this instead of the DJ that i initially ordered. Its a good thing my AD took so long on getting my DJ, otherwise i might have missed this.

Thanks for everyone's input on helping me make a decision!

Excellent move, Tony!! Hearty Congratulations! Talk about a "Blessing in Disguise"...good thing the DJ never arrived 'cause you've just acquired the BEST and the ULTIMATE!!!! Wear it in good health, my friend...always!!

Cheers - JJ

PS: I've noticed you have the flat 'S' font on the "S" of your SUBMARINER...same as mine!!

Hey JJ maybe they were split up at birth?

You know i wore this all day today and i felt like a million bucks! I now understand what you guys mean when it smiles at you.

P.S. They also threw in a Polo golf shirt with the Rolex insignia. Cool bonus!
