Hi there, first post after loads of lurking:
Last week I bought my first new Rolex: the GMT II red/black.

It was a tough job cause I liked the Sub Date also. The GMT II it was because of the timezone function and it is a bit more comfortable to wear.
I am just loving this watch more and more!! This weekend I got the bezel set complete and did a first makeover: it's Pepsi time!

I am stunned by the makeover, the whole watch sparks up! It's my favourite for now!

Enjoy the pics! Hope you like it...

greetings from the Netherlands

the red/black on a classic Rolex ad from National Geograpic. This is were it all started:

Ready for take off....

Pepsi time!:

Very nice watch and welcome.

Nice choice and congrats! Now... the forum is only going to go downhill with another Dutch guy here

. Frans will be over the moon to have an ally.

BTW, my signature line is a joke.

No, we proud Dutchmen don't need this. We have the House of Orange and a long and heroic history. We made New York to what it is today, discovered 50% of the world and put Canada on the map!

This forum will shine on all fronts with two cloggers! 1-1-1 on the charts, a sudden surge of new female members and an invitation from Rolex SA themselves for the top 30 TRF members to visit the factory and all receive an LV.

Welcome to TRF and congrats on a great watch.

Hey Phew.

Welcome to TRF

Great pics and watch. With the different inserts it's like you now have three watches.

BTW, are you Frans' dealer?
