Thanks, I have been craving rose on rubber ever since I saw a Hublot big bang rose on rubber back in 2011… I am glad I waited for THIS one…
It is a beauty!
That black is beautiful too but I just sold my black 116500 which is too similar.

The BLRO and 5711 are great for those non-blingy mood days.

I think if u toss in an ALS 1815 World Time on leather and you're done....at least for 2017! hahaha!
Oh man don't tempt me… Probably would go PP 5270 for dress watch though I am probably more likely to go RM before a dress watch like that...

Hey Stephen, yes I have… Honestly it is too heavy for my tastes.. I haved tried the platona on many times (only platinum watch I really want)… Comfort is so important to me and the WG Smurf I had, the YG Sub I now have and BLRO are all at the brink of heaviness for my small wrists. I have these flat almost rectangular wrists that AP ROOs and heavy watches like the Platona just don't fit and feel right.. Otherwise THAT watch would be upper right in my photo. I wish they had it in WG with that dial.
I understand some people like that heaviness, but not yet for me… I thought about buying it right trying it for a while and selling if it really didn't work. But my AD has let me try it on MANY MANY times and every time its a YES with looks and NO with comfort and feel…
But at some point, I probably will cave in and just try and wear it and get used to the weight and acclimate to the feel. I think I just need man up a little ....

Even the guard remembered my name.
It was definitely worth the drive, and all around another great experience.
I'll definitely be Baaaack

Nice! I really like definition of hattrick when buying 3 Rolexes at the same time. I aim to collection of six Rolexes too.

How long as it taken you to settle on the ones you have decide?
Two years total, and a lot of expense...
Perhaps I am at a point I can share a thread of how my watch collection has evolved (I think I shall soon).

Hey Bryant your new BLRO looks Awesome on your wrist. You seem to have a good eye for Quality timepieces. I am about to get a YG submariner with a blue sunburst dial to go with my D-blue deep sea. I have to tell you I was feeling pretty good about it. I read your thread about your Hat trick incoming of 3 Grail timepiece like it's know big deal cool calm and collective just Cruise over to DavidSW in the RR to pick them up. What a cool guy. I think I know why even the guard remembers your name I would guess you tip quite well. After you get the Hulk what is your plans to build the collection? Congratulations my friend I wish you good health enjoy life and everything it has to offer

Thank You David SW!!
He is becoming my New AD..
Full service bricks and mortar location, you just can't beat what he offers
(especially if you are in Florida).

Need to wait on Hulk which I paid for at actual AD tonight, but transferring from another location...

1) BLRO
2) RG Daytona on OF
3) Hulk

Attachment 875336

Attachment 875337

Attachment 875338

Attachment 875339

Sd43 is gone, just a bit big for my wrist, but I love it.
Hulk for SS Rolex, I like best. More comfy, fits better and one of the finest sunburst dials anywhere.
(I probably should have said 3 incoming and 1 outgoing = 2 Net added to collection).


Final Collection (For Now )
1) BLRO
2) RG Daytona on OysterFlex
3) Hulk
4) YG Sub (Blue)
5) 5711 White
(Toughest choice was BLRO vs 5164... In the end, Rolex Durability and WG prevailed).

Attachment 875340
(Ooops just realized forgot to wind my YG Sub.. I guess I got all caught up in the excitement today...lol)


What I like about this:

1) Nice balance of YG, RG and WG and SS
2) GMT, Chrono and Diver Covered
(Rolex's Best Sport's References IMO - Submariner, DaytonaC, GMT Master II)
3) 5711 dress watch (plenty dressy for me).
4) Great diver(s) watch for the beach
5) Great watch for travel
6) Classic Chrono for racing.. My porsche has it's own chrono, but still the daytona is the classic racing watch.
7) One SS beater watch
8) FOUR different sunburst dials (My Fav). Blue, Rose, Green, White/Silver
9) Different Bezel colors and looks (blue, red/blue, black, green, SS polished
10) Overall very colorful and varied with dials, metals, bezels and functionality
11) Full on White Gold and Full on Yellow Gold options for Stealth Wealth and Bling Bling moods
12) Finally Rose On Rubber that I love AND fits properly


I have an Orbita Watch Roll (for 5 watches) coming (thanks Jorge for your pics) and plan on keeping my collection to five pieces.
I really feel good about this collection lasting a while (at least a couple months anyway )

Congratulations- wonderful wonderful collection
