Incoming...

Being on this forum is extremely bad for my self control...

Newest acquisition and then a pic of my small "collection."

It was surprisingly less fun than I thought it would be to remove the case plastics... there are a ton of those little buggers.

Thanks everyone! Got it at the Rolex boutique on Michigan Ave in Chicago.

Question for the experts. This is my first watch with date complication. If I accidentally go forward one day, is it better to keep winding for 30 days so it keeps going forward, or I can I move it back one day?
