Huge congrats buddy!!
Wear in best health!! Also an airline pilot, and that was also my first rolex (although it was a 116710BLNR).

Wear in best health!!

Congratulations and wear it in good health. If I may suggest depending on if your a CAPT or FO:

CAPT - pull the grimes light out of its housing and let it hang next to your brain bag.
FO - be cognizant of the trim wheel. (If you wear your watch on your right wrist reverse the above)

Ask me how I know…

Great story, great reference, and really not that long a wait. I love to hear stories of pilots who wear GMT’s! Too bad Pan Am is ancient history.

Amazing and congrats!!! Cool story as well. Always fun to hear what the SA try to think of when they text their clients for the element of surprise.
