My first Rolex

I own a Poljot Aviator, an Omega Speedmaster, and now a Rolex Milgauss. I took this shot this morning at the time indicated and just west of Chicago. I was a physics major in college so this watch really appealed to me.

Great watch - congratulations! I'm an engineer so I see the attraction - unfortunately I'm so absent minded I have to have a watch with a date feature. One simple little thing to remember each day - can I do it? Nooooooo!

My Speedmaster is actually a Speedmaster Date... so I know what you mean. Thanks to everyone for the comments. I can't get over how comfortable the watch is to wear.
