My new Rolex SS GMT II Ceramic



I have finally joined the Rolex Club and hopefully there will be many more to come in the future.

I am very happy with this watch for many reasons:
- weight, feel, look, finish, quality, etc.
- although the watch is a 40 mm, the case and bezel make it look much larger in person
- choose this over Submariner because I do travel frequently and wanted to have at least 2 timezones

* sorry for the horrible pic quality...this was taken with my iphone 4S

aloha

Thanks to all for your kind comments...I am still hoping rolex will update their SS Daytona to one with a ceramic bezel...I am hoping it will be released at Basel 2012 (which I doubt) lol haha

I love this watch, I feel like it is dressier than the submariner, and I love the polished midlinks. The thing blings like no tomorrow. I want one (one day!)

thanks for all the kind comments...I really appreciate them...here is another pic...except taken with a better camera (Canon 1D Mark III with 24-105L) and my favorite cashmere sweater made by VonRosen (the same sweater that Steve Jobs wore over his mock turtleneck at the last WWDC, except in gray)



I like this pic much better than my previous one...again thanks to TRF for helping me make the right purchase...I am extremely satisfied with the watch...hopefully we all can convince rolex to make a SS Daytona Ceramic for 2013 ;)
