Incoming white OP39

Guys, I've been debating about this for months...

Since it was released at Basel last year, I've loved the simplicity and richness of the white dial OP39, and thought it would be a natural companion for my 116710LN. But - it was NOT easy to find! I had seen the blue, black and rhodium dials at various ADs but never the white.

Until yesterday.

I popped into two local ADs on a whim and to my surprise both had one!

Needless to say, I couldn't resist.

I wasn't able to get any discount. Both dealers said Rolex was really cracking down on any sort of Rolex discounts. Also, they both noted that it would be especially true for this one, as it's so in-demand.

Also, no Rolex gift. A sparkling water for my wife and a handshake.

Either way... I think it's a STUNNING piece.

What do ya'll think??

It looks great! I have never paid much attention to the OP, but I really like this watch - especially in white.

Was considering as well - it was close. It is not SS Rolex so easy to get. However MSRP for OP I would not pay.

Just to be clear, it is a SS Rolex -- just not a professional series reference. I'm not sure where you're located, but in North America this is certainly not an easy one to acquire. Took me around 6 months to source - and this is my third Rolex, so I have some AD history.
As for the price... Obviously I'd rather get a discount, but good luck paying anything less than MSRP from an AD these days! Finding the watch is the 'perk' it seems.
