Reuniting with a Lost Love Tomorrow
I've been since I flipped my black dial 216570. My wrist hasn't been the same since it departed my collection, life somehow feels incomplete!

With a big thanks to OCROLEXGUY, this void will be filled tomorrow and I'll be able to continue with my life

Congrats, thats why I won't flip a watch unless I'm 110% sure.

In retrospect, this was a case of "what the hell was I thinking". Moving forward, I'll have to post to the "one watch you would never sell thread"

I felt the same way when I let my 216570 polar go on a trade for a BLNR. I am quite happy with the BLNR but miss the ExpII a lot. Looking forward to getting another one soon.

Congrats on reuniting with your lost love!
