Loved the old one but found it a bit too small for me - the new one is just great!

For what it's worth, I have two salespeople at ADs in MN and CA tell me, over the past 30 days, that this is their favorite current Rolex (214270) when seeing what I was wearing. It was interesting....don't thing they were BS'ing me, as I was not there to buy another watch...just killing time as the significant other shopped elsewhere.

Doesn't matter, but it is a very respected entry in the current Rolex catalogue, it seems. To each, their own (as always).

Here's mine, strange thing is, that it has an A series which is a 1999 product, that should be 14270 instead of 114270. But it has the solid end link bracelet and no lug holes and supposed to be 114270 that start at 2001 ? thinking:

Anybody has any idea?

Mine, watch only-with A series, strangely it has a solid end link and no lug holes. Is it 14270 or 114270? AFAIK the 114270 started at 2001 while the A series represent the 1999 production.

Sorry for double post, I thought it was not sent yet.
Maybe admin can delete one of them.
Still the information needed though.

Do all the 39mm have blue lume? or is it picture distortion that make some seem greener? My eyes almost can't decide which color mine is.

The Red/White/Blue nato strap up top is Amazing.

This beautiful thread needs a bump. Certainly the most underrated Rolex in the whole line-up IMO - watch that is as perfectly at home on the boardroom as on the mountain, in the yard as in the beach. Understated elegance.
