Ladies & Gentlemen please be upstanding for...... Spuds' new GMTIIc!

After eighteen months wearing (Quartz) Omega Seamasters I'd almost forgotten just how good wearing a Rolex feels......
I've only had her a few hours but Ladies & Gent's I LOVE this watch!

Thanks Gent's!!

Gotta admit that I can't stop grinning!!

& Matt mate I was gonna go for that whole 'sweater & cuff' look that (genuinely) suits you so well but I simply couldn't be arsed to change my top just for the photo'!
Better n' smarter ones to follow I promise!!


& re: the DJII Eric mate....?
Three months at most I reckon....
But to be brutally honest with you (& myself!)....
... as much as I LOVE that watch I'm not sure the 'sparkliness' (is that even a word?! ) of the fluted bezel will sit so well on my wrist & fit my personality/lifestyle so well & I'm considering swopping the deposit over to a ceramic Sub' (assuming they're released) once I can gauge the lead-in time after Basel.
or then again if they release a domed bezel DJII maybe that won't seem quite so 'bling'.....


For now though I'm happy with this one.....
& Everose don't worry dude I'm off to ebay now to bag myself a Seiko 'beater' so this beauty doesn't get covered in at work.
