Another incoming! DD40

First time seeing this combo in person. I was worried about the dial color being old looking at 30 yo. All that worry went away as soon as I popped open that box.

Was so busy admiring it, forgot to take wrist shots. It’ll be here tomorrow.

That's a beauty; no such thing as just "another incoming! DD40." A DD40 is definitely worth celebrating!!!

I couldn’t pull that off (or afford it) but that’s so nice looking.

Seriously huge congratulations!

I'm betting that less than 1% of the population wear Rolex and less than 1% of Rolex wearers wear a DD. As Lee said earlier there is never just another DD incoming. It's a reason for all Rolex fans to celebrate.

Every day that you wear it will be a slightly better day.

Until you post your own wrist shot here is one below of me to keep the anticipation going.

Excellent and outstanding choice my friend.
