My First PM Rolex - for my 30th!

Celebrated my 30th in early Oct 2018.
i got 2 watches for my big 3-0. My first Precious Metal watch ever! and i can say its pretty addictive.
A JLC Polaris and Yachtmaster Rose Gold OysterFlex. Rewarding myself for a year of hard work!

Got this a few days after my birthday celebration. The wife is not very happy about it LOL

Happy birthday and congrats! I think the Yachtmaster looks really sporty and cool with the black bezel contrasting with the gold. I bet that would look neat on a gold bracelet, too, if Rolex made it.

i also realised that this is probably the only modern sports rolex that has a gilt printing of their logo on the dial!

Congrats on the purchase of such nice watch, and at such young age! A true accomplishment that you should be proud of.

(You mentioned your wife is not too happy about this.... allow me, a middle aged man with a few years of marriage experience, give you a piece of advice for your future purchases: happy wife, happy life. Keep the wife happy.)

My First PM Rolex - for my 30th!

Congratulations and happy birthday! Always assumed you were '84 cos of your username. I'm also 88. SG is so small... We may have crossed paths at some point
