Incoming BLRO!
So our anniversary is coming up in a few weeks and my wife asked me on Friday what I wanted.
She always knew I was kind of a watch nut but never knew there was a certain brand/model on my wish list. I told her I was interested in the GMT Master II with the Pepsi as my first choice and Batman as my second choice. She asked me how to go about acquiring it and I explained the process of having to reach out to A.D.'s. Today I get a knock on the door today and the FedEx guy hands me a box completely wrapped w/ the security/tamper tape. First thing I did was check the address on the recipient label before accepting the package since I had not ordered anything recently. My wife rushed to the kitchen area where I brought the package in and said "happy anniversary!" I open the box and there's a beautifully wrapped package inside. I unwrap it and there's a Rolex box, inside is a brand new Pepsi! I'll post pics soon. |

Since someone below asked, I'll just answer it up here where I'm trying to post the pics.
Wife had zero purchase history with the A.D. Transaction was done over the phone and A.D. shipped for free via over night FedEx. Last edited by Event Horizon; 11 April 2020 at 11:08 AM.. Reason: Pics |

Firstly congratulations and happy anniversary!
Assuming your wife didn't have much of a history with AD's, is it possible she may have just gone grey? |

You could either load the Tapatalk app on your phone and post pictures that way, or I post pictures to my imgur account and then am able to cut and paste the http address in the image box

Suggest you get the Tapatalk app on your phone. Log in to TRF. It’s a much easier way than online. Hope that helps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[QUOTE=SeaDuba;10528616]She's a keeper.
Hope you are talking about the wife not the watch :-) Congratulation OP for your anniversary. Best way to use this forum is through the Tapatalk app. Positing pictures is easier too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
