Congrats, I would have taken the blue dial too.

Nothing wrong with black though.

Well, without further ado... I have a quick couple of photos.. I don't have time to get anything more fancy up... one is a family shot of my two solid gold babies.

I was also torn as to get the GMT in YG, but it just doesn't feel as nice in the hand for me.

I'm curious though why on the official USA Rolex website they say "Price on request" seems odd, no?
After wearing Rolex for 25 years, I finally said "Damn it, life is just too short. I, too, have been wanting this piece for decades - just buy it"!

I scored mine about a month ago and have never been happier.

You'll love it. Here's a quick pic:

Correction. Sorry, thought you meant the TT 116613. Yours is that much better.
