PAY IT FORWARD - ROUND #2? Anyone interested?

Some great incomings and stories on TRF lately. I'm feeling inspired.

PAY IT FORWARD - ROUND #2? Same rules as last time. Anyone think we should do it again?

Most certainly not as according to what many post on forum Rolex no longer sells watches to Joe public, they now only sell watches to so called big spenders .

I am dying to get the turquoise OP, but actually want the 36 mm which may be a hair more attainable than the 41

Good on you for doing this again. I would be in for a DJ 41, blue dial with smooth bezel.

Yes! Green OP41 please!

And if you can make this happen for me I’ll pay it forward by pledging to offer a highly desired watch that I own for list.

This is great and really cool. Definitely do it again. Unfortunately, the only Rolex I currently want that wouldn't be flipped is a Daytona...haha. So I am out, but posting to watch the fun and happy reactions from the winner.

Yes sir. 126613LB.

It’s THE watch I’ve wanted since I’ve been a kid. I always said I’d have one when I “made it.”

Ha ha, great idea 2.0. I would take the green palm fronds dial DJ36 in stainless with oyster bracelet and smooth bezel. LOL I don't know if any ADs even have that one, and someone already beat me to the 124060. Great concept and it worked out great last time for the lucky winner.

Yes!

Been trying to find an OP41 in red/yellow/turq/green for a 40th bday gift for my bro (end of August). So far nothing from the 4 ADs I've registered interest with, so maybe you'll be my hail mary pass ;)

I am in no search for a new watch but, I would love to see this happen.

Knowing the person who buys it will wear and enjoy the watch is fantastic
