I have absolutely no clout, purchase history, or patience. So I was over the moon when I was able to find one of these beauties, unworn, at a good price. It took driving many many miles and meeting a stranger at an unfamiliar public park, but it's finally back home with me. I'm loving the new 36mm on the wrist. Thanks for looking!

Looks like a good fit. How do you like the taper?

I really like the taper not only because off the look, but it’s also very comfortable to wear.

Yeah, I had to go gray market. The original owner had put himself on a list a year back thinking he was gonna get a 39mm before Rolex made the announcement for a design/size change. Luckily for me, he had a much too large wrist for it.

I ordered the 214270 in December. When the new version was released, they changed automatically the order 😀

Looks perfect on your wrist!
I’ve been meaning to upgrade my 114270 to the new one. Grey market price seems a bit high so I’m holding it off.
