The first time I wore this today I felt like I was going out with a hot lady on a first date!

Great feeling!

Here is a Timegrapher 1000 image (dial up) on the new watch taken soon after I got home today. Test time was 60 seconds. Very occasionally wandered to 1 second, but mostly sat at zero.

Congrats! That is a sweet looking watch! Love the combo two tone and black dial!
I was in Melbourne for the Presidents Cup in December, went to three AD’s and they had zero stock. By the way Melbourne is an awesome city!!

Great watch - I actually think it looks better than the blue version (well, at least it did on my wrist)

Looks great! They let you walk out with the stickers too :) Enjoy with great health mate!
I bet I know who your AD is, if it's the one I'm thinking, they've been on fire lately :)

Hi thanks for your message.

The stickers that were left were not of any significance. i did not even notice any stickers remaining until I saw the images posted here. A bit of plastic film here and a bit of plastic film there - really of no significance.

However NO BEZEL PROTECTOR and no white tag with serial number etc was given to me. I got the Chronometer green seal.

I spoke with the CEO of Rolex AU (PB) who confirmed that what I received was correct.

I am happy.

Please nominate your guess re the AD.

Hi Sulla. I understand sir, also had some left on with mine also. Did they give your the white outer box? One week I got a triple box then next week only 2, white tags & chronometer seal with both, no bezel protectors. I think it depends on the sales associate. Anyone would be happy with that stunner :) Definitely a future classic & very underrated piece. The gold accents set it off in a special way. PM replied. Cheers.
