Happy Birthday to ME!

What a surprise this morning....

sorry pic isn't the best... but i was wondering why the GMT II pepsi was missing from my AD's case (Carlyle & Co. Jax, FL)

CONGRATS!!

Wear it in good health-The GMT will definitely be my next Rolex here in the next few weeks-unless I luck out and get the call that my Daytona is in!

I like the Pepsi dial-really sets the watch apart from the rest...

Christian is the man ! We can talk for hours about watches. I look forward to buying my next Daytona (Black Face) from him later this year.

Yes indeed, Mark. And he travels I-95 all the time. PERFECT!!!

Now, did I read correctly? Another Daytona for you? Black face this time??? WOW! Hope to see that one sometime for sure. I recommend that we wear our Subs to the next luncheon, however. Your Subby will be getting VEWWY JEALOUS!!!

Great watch, batdude. And Happy Birthday. You couldn't have gotten a better birthday present. Well, the only thing that would make it better would be if you put a black bezel on it - then you will have the ULTIMATE Rolex.

Yeah, I learned a lot. Could you make that happen for MY birthday, James. It isn't until October - that would give you plenty of time to pick up a nice Bark DD for me! Thanks ever so much, in advance!
