Just jumped in

The Deep end...for my 50th birthday.

Usually don’t splurge but I’ve always admired the engineering and design of Rolex.

Tried a Deepsea on a few years ago but felt the band was a bit small for my wrist. I was excited to see the adjustments they made to the watch this year with a wider band and newer movement.

Happy to have my first Rolex. And very much appreciate the AD in Santa Monica that contacted me when one arrived last week.

Look forward to getting to see all the great timepieces you all have on this forum and lucky to be an owner myself now.

Killer watch. I like the black dial more than the deep blue gradient dial. Enjoy!

Congrats, it's an amazing watch!!

The D Blue is amazing, but something about this new update with proportions and all in black just works imo.
