Incoming!!!!
Just picked up my first Rolex today. Brand new from AD. It's a great feeling!
I'm from Australia and was initially on the wait list for a BLNR and after 6 months waiting I told the AD to add the Sub date to the list, and I would take whatever came in first.

The 2nd pic is me taking the train home after picking it up. Good times!
