Nice that you and yours have kind of a matching set. I've offered to buy one for the wife and she has almost no interest. Oh well,guess it's just money saved towards My next one.

The two watches complement each other very nicely. Well done, and I bet your wife is on Cloud Nine!

I'm in that same camp. Thank goodness for spouses with their own set of interests. You go, girl!

thanks for the kind words. i'm sure she will enjoy it for years, as she is the type to get what she really likes and stick to it.

i was a little nervous as i ordered (site unseen) based on her trying on a white dial midsize and stating "i like black better".

really amazing that rolex usa can get an ordered watch out that fast.

as far as matching watches. . .i tried to float the idea of a midsize op 3-6-9 dial, but she didn't bite.
