Congrats! I assume as pre-owned (therefore, above MSRP) at an AD.

Awesome!

Looks like they have been sized to wear at the same time too?

I actually got the submariners instead and waiting for a blro and a 116500.
I already have a couple of factory diamond Rolex and I think it’s a bit early for the Daydate

Congrats! In the U.S. they won’t even let you see a SS sport unless you have great purchase history with the AD. At least your name is on the card and brand new.

Congrats - I own the Hulk and it's a killer.

BUT...with the funds, I would go a different route with the 2nd watch. Nothing like having another Rolex that feels totally different than the other (maybe get a 5-digit sub or GMT?).

how much over MSRP did you pay? I guess you're dealing with the Rolex boutique in Saudi?

Yes very normal
Actually we do not have any prices on rolex website. So I guess a dealer can charge more in here.

not too bad considering the whole gulf rolex ADs do the same, that's a reasonable mark up

Congrats for you! Too bad they got your business. It’s greedy ADs like that that have prolonged the shortage nonsense. If it were me I’d feel like I got ripped off.

they sell according to market price. So, you can pick up undesirable references at discount! it works both ways.

Congrats on that twofer! Good to see the 114060 in the mix so you have two completely different personalities to choose from. Enjoy !!...

Excellent two sub combination. The classic look of the 114060 and the gorgeous sunburst of the LV. Well done!
