Incoming... Couldn’t get this one out of my head.

I caved. I went in my AD to see what was new and to speculate with the SA about the Rolex release on 1 Sept. I walked out with this beauty. I’ve always been a dive watch guy... but this thing is stunning in person!

It was totally an impulse buy. It sang its siren song from the case and I had to leave with it on my wrist.

That looks fantastic. Congrats!

Do the modern DJ’s have an EasyLink extension on the clasp?

Sometimes it’s more pleasurable purchasing on impulse and coming away when it was least expected.

Congrats! I picked up the same exact one in May....was a sort of impulse buy for me. I was trying to get an OP39 with white dial, but those are pretty hard to get. When I asked my AD she said she has this watch in stock, so I told myself, if it's still there by the weekend I will take the 2 hour drive to look at it...and sure enough, I went home with it! Glad I got it, it's my new daily wear!

Congratulations! That white dial is something in person. When my AD got one in, I had to have it too.

Well done...I tried on a similar looking Date model recently, and find the look to be excellent.

Men brousing a watch store could be more dangerous to their wallet, than women brousing a handbag boutique.

Wise decision!

I saw one in the case at AD while visiting NYC in February but foolishly passed it up. Seems like the perfect daily driver to me...
