Merry Christmas/Thank You Rolex Forums! Did you get a watch for Christmas?
My Christmas Present: 216570 Polar!
 Long time reader of this forum. I have been wanting a Rolex for a while now. My wife surprised me today with a wonderful Christmas gift. She found this place via my internet history and made the purchase all by herself. Thanks to DavidSW for being such a great part of this community and helping her out. |

Picked this up about a month before Christmas & did wear it a few times before today but this was supposed to be a Christmas present. I love it.

I picked this up from TRF, a 1018. Just in time for Christmas, so far running +/- 1sec. Simple classic.

Merry Christmas/Thank You Rolex Forums! Did you get a watch for Christmas?

Now that's a reason NOT to be mad about your wife checking your internet history! No watch under my tree, but there was a nice piece of gear that cost as much as a gently used Sub under the tree this year...  Sent from my iPad Air 2 using Tapatalk (so I blame autocorrect for the spellin' errs)

Just bought me a No date SUB from DavidSw. Wife bought me a watch case. (She knew with all the watches I have been buying lately the big one was coming,
It was on my Amazon wishlist but she was afraid to pull the trigger....LOL (the Smurf no less) LOL I knew she would not go for that. She bought me the cleaning supplies for the Vette instead.... |

Nice presents!!! I'm sure everyone is enjoying them. I was hoping to rip the wrapping paper off and find another green box inside but unfortunately I didn't get one. Next year perhaps, until then I will enjoy my current collection.
