Re-acquired my first Rolex
I have always loved the white Milgauss, but didn't love it as my one and only. Fast forward a few years and now I think it's a great dressy compliment to my black Explorer 2.
Also, first Rolex I've ever purchased from my local AD. I must say, it was a very pleasant experience. It helps that Gary at Newton's in Fort Smith, Arkansas is really knowledgeable and interested in the brand. 30% off didn't hurt either!    Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

When the AD asked if I wanted to take the stickers off or if I wanted them to do it, I asked that they do it. My wife said "don't you want to do that yourself?" I said "no way, I'll be finding stickers for weeks to come." Sure enough they missed several stickers. I'm still finding them! |

Milgauss Z blue was my first watch before I flipped it. I do miss that watch.

Nearly sold off my Z Blue when it became a side queen, glad I didn't. Twas a perfect dressy foil to the SubC.
Congrats OP, lovely pair. Sent from my G3116 using Tapatalk
