Got The Call for 126710BLRO
I'll be picking up the watch tomorrow morning and I am really excited. I've been waiting for it since last September. I've got a $10.5k store credit so this new watch won't be much in addition.

My wife is the big spender (over $300k) in diamonds and gold jewelry. I just tag along and pick up the crumbs (Rolex) I'll post a picture tomorrow.

By the way, this is my third Rolex from this AD in less than a year.

Yes a short wait and my third Rolex with this AD in less than a year. I personally have not spent a dime but my wife, well that is another story being six figures.
I just sorta tag along when she visits the AD and get the benefit of her outlay.
Works well for me.

You know what my wife calls the Rolex-clad appendage that accompanies her to the AD? Brad.

Congrats OP!

Congrats! Normally I think of store credits as being something like 20 bucks. A $10,000+ store credit kind of blows my mind lol.

You must be in the oil business or own a large cattle ranch with that kind of discretionary spend for the wife.

Congratulations.

Depends on where he is in TX. In Dallas, Austin and Houston, 300k doesn't get you close to the top of the list.
