Today I picked up a Datejust 36mm with beautiful Mint dial from my AD!!!!
I really like the Fluted bezel paired with the Jubilee bracelet (although I do need to move the micro adjustment out one).
The green dial looks amazing in different lights changing from Green to grey.

I've been waiting some 18 months for allocation (this is my 3rd Rolex from this AD) and had given up hope this side of 2023. So earlier in the week purchased a beautiful 2009 JLC Reverso Classique. I had been looking for a good example of a late model Classique for a number of years and pulled the trigger when I found a pristine example with Box, Papers and tags.

I got the call out of blue on Thursday from my Rolex AD. It's been an expensive week and crazy how you wait for months and all of the sudden it all happens at once.

Congrats on both! 2 great watches! The Datejust, in that exact size and configuration, is one I’m considering.

the green dial looks really amazing, especially on the fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet.

Congrats both look awesome! I would bet your SA was pulling for you with the allocation manager to get you your DJ after the JLC purchase. My SA called me for my BLNR within two weeks of buying my Tudor opaline GMT. I had inquired on the opaline the day it was launched, so not like a bundle purchase or a quid pro quo pickup, but it worked out that after I bought it he was able to get me the next BLNR on jubilee that came in.

Congratulations. Great configuration on the DJ. The fluted bezel/jubilee bracelet are iconic.
