I'm still new to the world of Rolex but really enjoying it. So far I've purchased a 14060M and,
after a 10-day disappointment with an illegible-to-me, black/SS Daytona, a new EX II 42.

Over time, the one Rolex that has bubbled to the top in my visual-perfection department is
the "yes, honey, it's green" 16610LV. I knew it was only a matter of time before I found the
one I could not resist and today it arrives. WooHoo, as they say!

Meanwhile, I have been posting regularly to the WRUW threads and trying to post a new photo
every day, just to keep it interesting and my creative juices flowing. These photos have really
piled up so I thought that, while "waiting for Kermit," I'd throw them all at each other and see
where they landed...

Sooo, here ya go... I don't normally post a pic this size but this time it was hard to avoid.

Enjoy...

Agreed. Jim's pictures of his Exp42 are killer, and have been messing with my head (and plans).
