Incoming - Pepsi! The first Rolex I have always wanted

Finally got the call yesterday, my dad and I ordered the same time, he got his first from Singapore and I finally got mine in Japan yesterday when my local AD called

It is a darn beautiful piece, Initially I planned to put the blnr bracelet, but after putting it on, the jubilee bracelet is just too comfortable to replace.



And with this, I bow out of the watch buying game after 5 years flipping around :)

A custom piece made by an independent watch maker for my family. Simple two handed with manual winding.
