The serial flipper is finally happy

I’ve owned all the hottest Rolex sports models in the lineup and got bored with all of them. I finally found a keeper. I adore this watch! It’s comfortable, it’s beautiful and it’s the perfect all around watch for me. I highly recommend it.

Congratulations on finding something you like.

It's very unusual having a jubilee bracelet with a smooth bezel, I don't see that many

As it's a non sports model you did you get a decent discount? Mind you the profit you will have made on the hard to get sports models probably paid for it many times over ��

That's a clean combo. Have been looking at this setup myself with a black dial. Very modern looking to my eyes and looks really good on the wrist / in the metal.

It’s supposed to be 41mm but the exact measurement is 39.5 mm

Rhodium dial is really nice to look at, especially in direct sunlight and under bright lights. Great choice!!!

Fantastic watch. That dial is the one I would get if I ever go for a new datejust. Interesting to see with the smooth bezel, usually you see the jubilee bracelet with the fluted bezel.

That was my original plan until I saw the fluted bezel in person. It’s was way too flashy. The smooth bezel makes it a better all around watch imo. Not just a dress watch.
