Incoming bb58 blue

Been trying to convince my AD to give me the privilege of a SS Rolex ( no success in las few years). But they were able to get me a BB58 blue in stainless steel.

Now I know why all the hype about it. Is just like a 5 digit SS Rolex. Is awesome. Highly recommended.

Black or Blue...BB58 is the best in the current mid-range lineup and sure to be a classic in the near future.

Incoming bb58 blue

Such an enjoyable watch. I can never help but to urge people who can’t get a sub in this current climate to try for one of these. No, it won’t replace the itch for a sub, but it doesn’t have to. It is just plain wonderful in its own way.

It’s so hard to go wrong with it at this price point.

I just replaced my 58’s leather strap with a Rubber B and it just looks so fantastic even my month old Pepsi has now taken a back seat again.

And I want the BB58NB, no doubt about that.

Lovely watch but be careful with that chain beside it there could be tears.

Cool watch but time for a new AD that will you ‘give you the privilege “ of a Rolex ss. I ended up with ss rolex skyd blue with no purchase history. It did take me 15 months at 50% down but I so appreciate me getting opportunity to purchase. Def one of my fav watches.
