Had a missed call earlier today. IPhone suggested it was my local AD, which got me pretty excited, as I have ordered both a Submariner (altough I don’t expect it to arrive anytime soon) and the new Datejust 36 introduced at Basel 2019. I called back, took off early from work and paid then a visit and now this beauty is mine
😀 One month ago when I ordered it I was told they would probably be able to get it before Christmas but I didn’t imagine it would go this fast.
Rolex deliveres. This is an absolutely stunning watch and I am over-the-Moon about it.
I was a bit torn between this and the black dial, which was featured in all the reviews from Baselworld because I thought this silver dial might look wrong: the silver dial and white markers being too close in colour. Also because the initial photos of the silver dial looked boring.
But it is perfect. The absolutely right balance and it was love at first sight. The same feeling I got when I got my first Rolex, a Submariner 14060M, a couple of years back.
And even though I am primarely a vintage or “used watch” guy I must admit there is something about a brand new and fresh from the factory Rolex
