Nice move, Vukota! I have always liked the OP Date, but bigger watches are "in" more these days it seems. But I have one and my 19 year old also has one- and I think it's a classic look that will come back. The Bezel on yours is especially nice. Hold on to this for a while.

Beautiful Rolex Vukota!

The strap matches the watch perfectly!

Welcome back! It feels good to be back to Rolex doesn't it?

Now the question is... what watch will you wear in your upcoming movie?
