Incoming from Tony(justrolexes)!!

After many years of wanting this watch, I finally pulled the trigger on this spectacular SS Daytona Chronograph, and Tony has made my week!

I recently joined the forum on the recomendation of TRF member Brenngun, and he was kind enough to guide me through the process.

He suggested I reach out to a number of trusted sellers and Tony got back to me within minutes with the perfect watch.

This place is amazing, do your research, reach out to members who are more than willing to help, tell them what your criteria is and BOOM!.

Dealing with Tony was an excellent experience, he was patient, and most importantly, he delivered way above my expectations.

FedEx tells me this will be on my wrist tomorrow afternoon....no sleep for me tonight!

Thanks Brenngun for all your help and thank-you Tony!!!

Pics or it didn't happen, I will update with this beauty on my wrist tomorrow.

Tony is a pro, a long trusted seller, and was a total gentleman to deal with in all respects.

I suggest you Private Message him, PM him using his The Rolex Forum username which is:

justrolexes

Knowing Tony, he'll get back to you within 5 minutes.

Good hunting!

Congratulations! Nice watch! Hopefully customs doesn’t slow Fedex down. It cost me a day on my recent purchase. I’m looking forward to your wrist shot.
