Icon20 My very FIRST Rolex!!
Looks like it was the GMT blue/black (day/night) (Powerade) that has got me into the Rolex club. I have ALWAYS wanted a Rolex but never been sure which one to buy, i was close to buying the Hulk last year, but I knew straight away when i saw this blue GMT that this was my ticket into the Rolex world and i honestly am in LOVE with it (honeymoon period)

The SMURF is defiantly next

Smurf is more aesthetically pleasing however the sky dwellers mechanics are on another level, to walk around with that kind of power on my hands would be epic
