Just got the call - my AD has a 126710BLNR with my name on it!

I'm going to pick it up later today. I can't wait!
I told him that I'd be interested in anything he can get (Hulk or GMT) and I just got a call out of the blue from him telling me that he has one if I'd want it (of course I do!).
I can pick up my Daytona's warranty card too while I'm there. So exciting!!!

What's the story about the Daytona warranty card? Did you have it gold plated?

I have the warranty card sent to my AD and I pick it up from them. It's what I've done with all my Rolex's.

Gold plating wouldn't be a bad idea though!

Yep. Gotta jump on that. I bet it wasn't even a consideration on your part. I could only imagine that phone call.

Just took a quick pic at the AD (wasn't set or sized yet).

Interestingly, the size wasn't far off right out of the box. Is the jubilee bracelet smaller than the oyster? I had a link removed from my Daytona and the GMT only needed a small adjustment to fit perfectly. I don't have a large wrist (7"), so I would think if someone has a 7.5" or larger they might need to add links.

Yes, I have a VERY good AD! He said it is the second new BLNR they got in.

Very excited! I've never owned a Rolex with the jubilee bracelet. It's quite comfy and feels different than the oyster. I little bit more dressy too.

Congratulations!!! I would be interested in hearing more about the Jubilee bracelet. Do a lot of people have to add links? How do you think it feels more comfortable?

Thanks for sharing & kudos to your AD!!!
