My new DJII

if anyone remembers a few weeks ago, I put up a post about whether I should get the new submariner or the datejust II. I'd like to say thanks to Father John, I have made the purchase through Tara Jewelers in Buford, GA. Here are some pictures. In other exciting news is that I'll be getting a new milgauss LV next week.. 2 new rolex within 2 month,i think i have the bug...

You THINK you have the bug! No, you HAVE the bug! But enjoy the "illness" and wear your new catch in good health. It's a beautiful DJ, congratulations!

Great looking DJ II

Love the blue numbers - do they glow blue in the dark?

I guess I haven't quite got used to my new glasses yet, or my screen's playing up - or both!!

It looks great regardless and I can't wait to see some shots with the blue numbers glowing in the dark
