Picked up this beauty today

115234
Date 34mm Oyster
Salmon dial

Been telling my wife for years she must consider the Salmon dial .
Typical woman ,they dont listen . Have DJ36s in blue and MOP and a DD36 with the spectacular green diamond dial.

So,popped in at the AD yesterday ,she sees it,loves it ! I say ..See ! I told you so !
Picked it up today. It is sublime !

Its also discontinued and 34 is no more .So,its a nice find .Salmon stick dial also.
Also her first on Oyster,where the DJ36s have super-jubilees (Now only to be found on the 31s)

Thanks

..and it will be in wearing rotation .Used and worn as intended for many years.

So,this also begs the following to be asked :
Is a watch that's used not worth much more than a pristine safe queen that never sees the light of day ?
Is the safe queen just there because it nice to have and its worth $$$ ?

Wearing a Rolex is its true "worth".
