As close to Christmas morning we watch enthusiast get as a adult.

Yea, I guess I have to disclose my last 5 months of strategy in working with a few watch friends in a new Rolex acquisition. I have been keeping this a close secret from the forum but many might guess what watch it is by my glowing comments when this watch comes up in a thread.
I have had this watch on my radar since Baselworld 2018

but I can’t and won’t be price gouged. 30 years with Rolex and normally it would have taken a few weeks to get a hot Rolex watch but in these times I really had to work with my contacts. I detest the current Rolex climate but love the Rolex watch so I am left as a watch enthusiast in a very difficult place like most. Either not buy or work my azz off for the privilege of spending a lot of money on a luxury watch. Able to purchase at (or very close) to msrp on this new one. That’s a major victory as we all know.

New incoming and boxing thread later today.

My guess is a Pepsi

I sat next to the door yesterday like a puppy and USPS never delivered :( Status now just says status not updated and item may be delivered late, which it already has

Been there, done that.....try usps registered mail! Secure but long!

LuminousMaximus · 22 September 2019, 12:59 AM

I don't know how you did it but Congrat's on getting close to MSRP!

Almost as bad as waiting for the refrigerator repairman, as my son is doing.

Must be the DSSD JC. If so, great choice. My ad said they have only received one this whole year.

Me and my love of the new movement and alpha dive watches. I was hoping to get one in before winter. Weather looks good so it will be wet and on a dive within 48 hours.

Congrats in advance man, I really like the new DSSD JC with it’s updated movement and wider bracelet...good to hear you’ve already got plans to get it wet too! No doubt it’s the baddest diver Rolex makes

Jona · 22 September 2019, 01:39 AM

Yes congrats are in order. I have the original model and put it on a Rubber B strap which is wider than the bracelet and supports the watch well. It's a beautiful watch, that's for certain.

epc2 · 22 September 2019, 02:42 AM

JC , nice I bet you'll love it.

tgyberg · 22 September 2019, 02:54 AM

Wet is good!

Bizcut1 · 22 September 2019, 03:00 AM

FedEx not UPS. From my experience.

Jabbo84 · 22 September 2019, 03:03 AM
