Fantastic incoming ! One of my favourite Rolex's I'll never own.

Way too posh for me ... and I could never afford it. Love dial colour

This is flat-out awesome.

Congrats on the grey market experience, as well. Once you go grey, you never go back!

That’s insanely gorgeous. Love the platinum. Would have loved to be a fly on the wall to hear the specifics of that deal.

Now, that's the spirit! Huge congratulations on getting the grail watch you wanted. I can totally relate to why you would do that. Bravo! I have often thought that is something I could do one day. Fortunately, I do like the watches in my collection. And my grail (at least one of them) is a watch that I am selling three of my current collection to get.

Anyway, you give me encouragement for sometime down the road, if I do see an expensive watch like this I can't live without.

Well Done!!

Cheers,
Carl
