Incoming: Something Colorful

Finally pulled the trigger on something I have been eyeing for quite a while, essentially ever since it debuted at Basel 2014. Eta is this Tuesday, will be counting the down the hours..

Special thanks to AS1 and Dr. Tom for enabling a heavier wrist, and a lighter bank account

Thanks guys, will post a few pictures once it arrives Tuesday. Can't wait to receive it!

Interestingly, this is my first 'planned out' modern Rolex purchase, as all of the others have been more on impulse. Only two other modern pieces I am after, a Y serial 16610LV and a 116506.

Then I'm done..

Nope, a little too colorful for me. Going with a BLRO this time around.
