Extremely proud to have achieved this. My most sincere thanks to all of you, for having guided the way with such overwhelming knowledge and incentive, be it directly, to those who kindly responded my PMs, or simply for sharing the joy through all the fantastic pictures and information here.

Mike, allow me to publicly thank you for the valuable apinions and advice you gave me through PMs. You know this wasn't the original plan, and later on it changed again, after the 116619 David ordered for me, directly from Rolex, surprised both of us with a low mag cyclops. There wasn't time to get another one, as I was in town for only three days, but being the super pro he is, David managed to arrange this bnib 5164 for me to try on... when I put it on my wrist, well, the rest is history. Your advice surely helped a lot, my friend.

Awesome! Congrats!

incontrol · 25 August 2015, 10:28 AM

Love the sizing pic! But I really love your celebration pic even more. Congrats on a great watch!

texex91 · 25 August 2015, 10:29 AM

Congrats and enjoy the 5164!

Racerdj · 25 August 2015, 10:31 AM

Congratulations! Looks great on your wrist!

subtona · 25 August 2015, 10:43 AM

That is some extra strap cutting caution right there:)

Congrats.

David, it was great being over there, paying a visit, talking watches, trying them on, etc. I had an amazing time. Thanks a lot, my friend, for all the efforts you pulled to make everything work out and for what was, in the end, yet another fantastic experience.

'Till next time, buddy!

Haha, it's funny, as David actually said "BE CAREFUL not to cut the strap too much". I took his advice to heart.

Fred, buddy, it was Christmas, Easter and my birthday all rolled into one! Your pictures of this one were one of my sources of inspiration! Thanks a lot!!

Laughed when I saw the first picture, and thought I knew what you got.
Well, you went three numbers less but one better in a 5164.
Major congrats on your major incomings!

Both are truly great references, Bryan. In my case, the GMT made all the sense to me alongside the chrono and diver from the other thread! This was a huge moment for me all around, thanks much for the good vibes!

GoingPlaces · 25 August 2015, 12:20 PM

Great choice! Enjoy it.

topcat30093 · 25 August 2015, 12:26 PM
