WoohooO! Congrats!

Nothing like getting a fresh piece with all the factory stickers on it. It took me 30 minutes to take them all off last time

Welcome to the club and enjoy that beautiful watch!

Great Choice. My first Rolex was a tt GMT bought in 1973. I still like the black and gold, though mine was on jubilee.

I noticed that a good amount of the TRF members flip. However, I promised myself I won't flip this watch because of sentimental value of being my first watch. Besides, the experience in obtaining it and negotiating it was just too memorable. (Unless, I'm still on my honeymoon phase?)

Oh...I'll bet that baby has some great sparkle! I know my older SERTI dial with smallers diamonds does. Btw, it looks very classy! Congratulations to you.

Very nice, there is something special about that black and gold combo. The diamonds are icing on the cake.
