My first, the one and only, Rolex - 116610LV

And my first post here...







Wonderful watch, in real life, much better than in all the pictures.

I hope you like it and maybe you can advice me on what color should should a nato strap be to compliment the beautiful dial and bezel of the watch.

Thank you all. Multumesc! ;)

I had several Omega, JLC, VC, Breguet, Breitling and others on my wrist for shorter or longer periods... But this one is just perfect. I am giving my best to find something not right with it, but, tough luck... Excellent clasp and bracelet, beautiful green dial and the ceramic bezel, the click, the sound of rotatin bezel, -0,5s/24h, blueish light, the crown.... Excellent.

I as 100% sure this one i will keep for the rest of my life because i was thinking of one for the last year, waiting for a special moment in my life to happen so this watch will commemorate this.

Thank you!
