Icon20 Buying My NEW Rolex (Vlog and Reveal)
It's finally HERE! My new ROLEX. As many of you kind members of this wonderful forum know me online, I was debating which rolex to buy following the sale of my Oyster Perpetual 114300.

Well, here is the big reveal. Filmed in my usual style. I hope you enjoy it along with the reasons why I chose this over the others.

Many thanks to the forum members while I was deciding what to do!

BUYING MY NEW ROLEX !!!

Nice score. Love the blue dial! Did they give you a magazine as well?

Shame we don't get the rolex paper bag here in uk, it's usually the crappy generic store bags. I know which I prefer.

Opportunity.

Added to my collection when trading in the 2017 speedy Tuesday, now traded up towards white dial 116500.

The slim profile of the watch is something I do miss.
