Congratulations my friend. I know what this watch means to you and how long you waited to get it. It certainly seems worth the wait and effort. It's truly a pinnacle piece and looks tremendous on you.

The color scheme really is intoxicating. I notice something new each time I look at the watch.

I hope so that thing is hideous.

Congrats Paul

Nice to see a GMT function that's so easy to use but the RG case finishing takes the cake. Enjoy it.

Impressive friend. Glad you were able to find one.

Is that dual dates (big at 12 and small at 4:30) for the dual time zones?

4:30 is month (it's a annual calendar)

Mega congrats...she's a stunner.

Next time, post up a want to buy type thread...I've been offered several of these over the past year I could have pointed it towards you.

I just did that on a car forum and got a lot of solid leads.

Congrats again!!

That is the nicest looking RM I have seen yet! The rose gold and those amazing GMT colored dials just make it perfect. It was worth the wait, and I hope it puts a smile on your face for years to come.
