First GS

Hi all,

I've been a Rolex collector for some time, but I purchased my first GS.

I got the Spring SBGA 413G. My AD was kind enough to let me buy one as a pre-order. I'm super excited to own this watch. I'll post pics when it comes in November!

Nice selection - the dial changes its appearance, from pearlescent silver to pink. Enjoy!

Great choice. Threads need pics, right?


I’d say the dial spends more time in the white-silver hue than pink. The phone definitely makes it look more pink than it is, and if the light hits it just right it shows up.
