What are the prices like in 2022? Is the DaytonaC still hard to find? Oh, and, any SS Coke yet?

Really nice pics, but more importantly, who's going to win the World Series this year . . . and what stocks should I be buying?

In 2022 are there any bronze Tudors left or have they all corroded beyond repair?

Nice intro, Nad, your Deep Sea Blue looks awesome. Big congrats, and welcome to the Rolex universe. The company truly produces an intriguing variety of handsome, sporty, bulletproof watches all with interesting, iconic histories. You will find the brand to be very addicting, lol. Hope you enjoy that beautiful DSSD to the fullest. Kind regards, -Rick.

Hello Everone,

Notwithstanding my typo for the year "2022" instead of 2002 (hahaha ), I wanted to thank you all for the warm welcome.

Wishing you a wonderful long Labor Day weekend for those in NA!
