Incoming! 126660 D-Blue

So I’ve turned this watch down before - I just didn’t “get it” at the time.

I do now. Let me tell you, this watch is so comfortable - I’ve slept with it on for two nights in a row!

If you wear a SD43 daily, give this watch a try (if you haven’t already) - it’s more comfortable, and the thickness is oddly satisfying. Never thought I’d be in love with this watch

Congratulations man. In my opinion this is the coolest piece Rolex has. I wish I had the arm presents to pull it off. I tried it and it just didn’t work for me. I’m too small.

This is the only steel Rolex that feels like you have full PM heft on your wrist. The clasp microadjust is more convenient and more fine tuned than the submariner (which has probably the second best clasp adjustment in the world second only to the deep sea).

That's right, the deep sea has the best clasp adjustment I have ever experienced on any watch.

This thing feels like a tank, tough and rugged yet refined at the same time. It’s one hell of a watch!

Purchased mine in Feb 2020. THE most comfortable Rolex of three I own. The sportiest Rolex and rare--I have never anyone else wearing one. Congrats!

I have loved the JC from afar since it came out! Always love it when forum members receive theirs.

I’ve always held off due to my 6.75in and the fact that I have a few pieces I want before the JC.
