AD in Houston, Texas delivered big on this 50th Anniversary SD43...delivered on day-50-from-inquiry big...I couldn't be more excited to share this timepiece with y'all.

The quick and dirty: I live in Idaho, my parents live in Houston. My Idaho AD told me the wait on 126600 was 8-12mo minimum and gave me the often-heard jeweler company-line (totally their prerogative!! NOT hating) of "you can become a preferred customer by picking up some of our stock in the interim to become prioritized." I thanked them and off I went.

Inquiry made in Houston, delivered earlier than estimated by a month, booked tickets the day it arrived (last Thur) and picked up my grail today, Monday. Super special to share this Rolex experience with a visit down to the folks, post Harvey, 2 years out.

Double watch pic is my first diver (purchased in 1993) Tag Heuer Professional 200 (original bezel, case and bracelet/clasp; replacement dial, hands, and movement due to busted crown seal) that my father has rocked as a daily beater, since I acquired my Omega Seamaster 2231.80 in 2000.

Today, my grail sits on my 7.875" (20.0025 cm) wrist...also Houston in humid! Thank goodness for the 2mm micro-adjustments!!

Feels awesome to join the club.
