New watch - BLRO

Got the call today. I was told this is the 5th one they received. Feels very different from my Hulk. It is so difficult to capture the blue.

Nice watch OP. If I didn’t have a SS Sub, this would be on the rader. I’m currently looking to add the blue dial 36mm Oyster Perpetual to my my collection. I find myself wearing my SS white dial 36mm Datejust more than my Sub. I like switching it up.

Congrats, nice watch .I don't know whether or not you like jubilee bracelet but I would replace it either with an oyester if it doesn't fit then I would try a rubber strap as I'm not fond of jubilee one .

I actually don't mind it at all. It wears more comfortable than the oyster on my other watches. The watch is surprisingly lighter than I thought.

Been a client with them and personally know the sales rep and GM since 2007. I have purchased all my Rolex from them (6 total). Not a VIP or anything that's for sure but I believe having the connection and showing them you are passionate about watches goes a long way.

Great watch, though I have to say I think I prefer the Oyster bracelet instead of the Jubilee.

On my wrist: 116600 Seadweller.

Cheers

Beads!

Beautiful watch! The maxi-cases are not for me personally, I much more prefer the vintage cases. Fantastic watch nonetheless. Enjoy it, these are seldom seen and should be quite valuable if the Rolex market continues it's trend.

Love the watch. Beads kinda take away from the watch.
