Congrats OP

I recall commenting on your DD RG/olive incoming….would be great to see a SOTC. Looks like you’ve got some heavy hitters

Hopefully Rolex is sending out more and more of the 116's before the 126's. I know I'd definitely appreciate a call/text

Happy you got yours
Thank you Anthony!!! Hope you get the call for yours

Congrats - but I’m so confused why Rolex would be shipping the older models out. If I had to guess (totally making assumptions here), your AD probably had this in the safe and folks on the list may have been passing it up for the newer model. Thus, old model became more “available”.

Massive congrats on the Panda.

There will be a flurry of these coming through until the new reference takes it place. My AD has already advised me that a 116500LN is coming in during June & the "exhibition" 126500LN will be there to view next to it.

I was told new Daytona are coming through till around September. At least I think that’s what he said … I was kinda distracted looking at my new watch

Congrats op

I’m still undecided which I prefer between the discontinued Panda & the new one.
