1 of 50 Offshore arrived

Grabbed this from Wrist Aficionado who were easy to deal with. No complaints other than sales tax, which it seems some dealers charge and some do not.

It's a white gold Japan edition Offshore. I saw pics a few years ago but due to the rarity, there isn't much info out there about them. A few would pop up outside the US from time to time but the prices were crazy high. I think I got a fair deal and it came complete with Croc strap as well as rubber, I added the Miami Blue hours strap to complement the blue in the dial which is almost an exact match. I'll grab a few better pics later today after a strap change as it just arrived this morning

Switched the strap out. Significant color difference between indoor and outdoor lighting compared to my other Offshores

I have always worn on my right wrist. Left doesn't feel natural to me. I guess I could wear one on each wrist since I do have a few Offshores 😂
The only thing in the Rolex catalog that interests me at all is the blue dial skydweller, which I already own.

Good call on the Miami Blue strap - sets the whole combo off perfectly. Congrats.

I believe it is the same blue based on pics, but I've never seen a Montauk in person to verify. Thanks!

Here he is with all his brothers 26401PO, 26401RO and 26400SO. Now I just need a 26405CE black/black to complete my Offshore collection

Cool (and refreshing to see something other than the usual suspects)!

I had the Titanium blue dial 26420 but traded it towards the platinum 44mm. I liked the quick strap change and case design of the 43mm but not as much as I like the 44mm versions obviously.
