Didn't Mean to
So popped into my AD to see if my replacement 40mm YG DD was in from Rolex yet.

And well you have to ask if they have a SS GMTII BLNR, in stock?

Guess what?

Yes they had one in that morning, so no contest, had to buy it!!!!

My fiancι hates it

Not because it's a lot of money but because she thinks I should value her input on each watch. I move much too fast for her though and eventually she gave up and merely gives the new ones a thumbs up or thumbs down. Most common response is, "it's okay."
