Icon20 I just cant do it....INCOMING!!!

After much soul searching I have decided to get my ceramic Daytona deposit back, I got on list late and I can't bring myself to pay over msrp for one now. And it just so happened that Oscar Bodybump gave me a price I couldn't refuse on the other watch at the top of my list. My new Deep Blue is absolutely gorgeous. And it fits and feels great. For me it was the right choice. Thanks Oscar(bodybump)!

It's a rose gold with strap. The dial is the same pink as the rg bracelet model. Rolex now offers it on the leather strap model.

116515?
i have the chocolate dial, i had not seen anyone with the pink dial in the wild.

my own problem of loving the chocolate sunburst dial but not the non lume arabic numbers. i thought about sending mine into RSC to get a dial change.

Oh yeah. Did the same few days ago. Got a ceramic to cure another ceramic desire. Mission accomplished. Lust subsided.
You got RG and Plat? That should quench any thirst for an SS.
Congrats !
