10 years and the first time ever - Double Incoming

With watch prices getting so crazy, it was time to part with one of my favorites, by doing so, it allowed me to do something I have never done before.

A double incoming!

Was able to turn one into two, and very happy with the result.

A new BLRO, and the SD43!!!

VERY awesome! Love the BLRO that will be my next purchase assuming they don’t go super crazy. I’m a newbie I just bought my first Rolex today. Picked up a brand new sub with date!

I was certain it would be a pair of Timex Ironman, given your other posts.

Oh man, that is my ultimate duo right there Tom. I’m desperately trying to get my hands on both. Any particular one stand out from first impressions?

P.S. huge congrats.
