A Red "Number" Day! My New Rose Gold T-Graph...
There's just something about a red hand on a watch!
It arrived this morning. I expected it yesterday, since it wasn't here the day before. Talk about building to a climax! Columbus Day was a good day! I need to remove the plastics, now. Or do I? I hope "Finding the courage to remove the plastics" is in the instruction manual! The hardest choice was picking between a used gold Rolex, or buying NIB SS and gold! I can now resume wearing my other gold jewelery! Our wedding, the birth of our boys, and sleeping with the girl of my dreams every night are some of the only things that top this thrill! (Bringing home a shiney new car comes close to this.) Thanks for sharing this joy with me. |

Thanks, everyone!
I like the bi-directional bezel and the way it locks in place after you relive downward pressure from it. I thought I wouldn't be happy with it's smaller 36mm size, but with the way it wears, I was wrong! |

Very nice Craig,
Nice dial/datewheel combination and I like that clasp (same as my GV?) better than the overlock. Enjoy wearing it.
