Congrats and welcome to TRF! Great pick-up! I'll be in SF / Bay Area next week and might have to swing by Bucherer Tourneau

Congrats, OP. That one should last you the rest of your life.

Congratulations on your 1st Rolex. Pinyi is great. I generally purchase from Toni. I did notice they had a few more watches available that weren't just Two-Tone ladies DJ's with diamonds.

Hello there, actually I got it at downtown San Francisco rolex tourneau store. I went to the valley fair one last week and they have two tone SM in store for sale.

Since you're in SF, you should check out HQ Milton sometime if you want to be blown away with some vintage watches.
Thank you Eric. Will do that! I recently started the journey and definitely there is a long way to go and a lot of things to learn. Glad to know we have same watch!!

Yes, they are all very nice people! When I first visited store last year, they didn't have any inventory in store. But yesterday when I picked up my watch, they indeed have some there for sale, including steel watches!

Agreed. Smooth bezel/oyster DJ and two tone watches are not high in demand, so it's not surprising they have inventory.

Either way, congrats on the sub, OP!! Looks great!

Congratulations. You’ll enjoy that watch for years to come. It’s coming up on 3 years since I bought mine and it still draws my attention every day I wear it.
