Joined the Big Boys Club Today - Incoming 116619LB Smurf
I've been rocking my first Rolex, a nifty little 116200 silver dial, smooth bezel datejust on all stainless super jubilee, for about 2.5 years. I am fortunate recently to be able to step up my collection significantly with my second purchase. Enough has been said about this stunner before - I'll let the pictures do the talking.
BTW, I have no prior experience with this AD, but went in about a week or 10 days ago and began talking to a salesperson about my interests. She dangled the prospect of a quick hard-to-find stainless piece if I bought precious. Then she began calling me to follow up and brought in an olive-dial WG DD40 for me to also try when she could not find a BLRO. So I got to try that piece on as well, and it was stunning, but could not really sway my attention for very long from the sub. I brought cash with me (seriously, wads), and after some back and forth ended up getting just under 20% off (in part due to avoiding tax by shipping out of state). That and a promise for either a hulk in 2-6 weeks or a white face ceramic Daytona in less than 6 months.
