Yeah, it’s usually a bummer, when you get a GMT II or Sub or Exp II the AD can help out with links, but when it gets to SkyD, DayDate President or PM Daytona links I have no choice but to wait until the RsC comes through with links...

Great watch - I’m curious if you have anything to say about the bezel. Looks beautiful in the pictures and wondering if you think the MK3 notion is valid.

Wow, $8475 is a lot cheaper than $9700+tax in the USA.

In England?

Yeah, they’ll get new ones from the RSC, but just save you the hassle.

In Southeast Asia. The currency has been fluctuating so had a nice Forex benefit

Just FYI, USA is probably the most expensive country to buy a Rolex:

in 2019 the BLRO was:
USD 9,250 in USA
USD 8,500 in Australia
USD 8,500 in Brazil

Yes, i personally like the MK3 as both the blue and red are sharp but darker and the numbers on the bezel are more pronounced/thicker.

It’s definitely more subtle than the MK1 i would say and sharper than the MK2.

That’s my opinion.

Isn’t there VAT I’m in some countries that would apply? Just curious.
