Incoming 15053 Date Black: Fancy Pants Watch!

So I have been wearing a Tag C7 Carrera Twin Time for 10 years as my daily wear, but have always wanted a Rolex as my "fancy wear". Today, I finally made that happen after a week or so of shopping.

Incoming is this 15053! First time purchasing off Chrono24, so hopefully it will be a good experience...

Apparently, I cant post links because of my low post count. So I cant show it off.

I suspect an Air King or perhaps a Date to replace or complment the Tag is soon to follow. Oy!

So much for that. :( It arrived with a badly repaired bracelet and some scratches on the crystal. So back it goes...

The dealer is being cool about it, though... even sent me a FedEx return label.

Now to go shopping for another one. :D

Oh man sorry to hear that! At least it sounds like the return process is easy. Good luck on the search!
