My new OP 36

I contacted one of the local ADs last week and asked if they had any Oyster Perpetual in stock. They said they only had one, the black, so I went in on Friday and bought it.

I am so ecstatic over this watch. I feel that my WIS journey might be at an end. This watch is just so versatile.

Thanks for looking.

I love the 36 in black- in this color the double batons and numbered minutes track work so well. Congrats!

Yes, the OP really is perfect. One of the few Rolex watches that I prefer in six digit. Built like a tank, and yet very classy. Works in every situation. Mine says hi.
