Incoming…

Finally I get to say it, had the call from my AD this morning. Collecting this afternoon my first Rolex, a DJ41 with bright blue dial, smooth bezel and jubilee bracelet. My Grandad was an impeccable time keeper and my whole life I’ve admired his 1803 YG DD which is now in my dads collection. I Turn 40 next week so this is my marker for that.

Always a little jealous when I hear people getting calls from their AD! My AD told me there's around 60 people waiting for 1 black dial watch so I'm not even sure if I'll get the call. Either way, congrats!
