After 22 Rolex watches it's time for ROO - QUESTION tho

I'm looking one one of the sites and see a 2017 that is unworn/new.

For something sitting 8 years on the shelf would I expect the watch to need to immediately go in for service or should it run strong, no issues w old oil or seals or the like??

Thoughts?

I went into the boutique and tried on the new baby blue chrono ROO. I lived it, said I must have it - oh the laughs from the sales guy.

2017 unworn a good move or no?

Thank you.

It might, but they should be able to put in on a timegrapher to find out how it is running. If not, just be sure that a service (probably $1800 range in Clearwater) is reflected in the price.

If you don’t want to wait especially for that baby blue dial you are gonna need to go grey.

Welcome to a whole new level sir.

I think you mean this one right? I tried it on and surprisingly thought it was good, because I normally hate watches over 13mm thick.

Wears really nice with a beast mode sporty presence

This is what I was looking at... 42mm, navy dial, orange sub dial hands & orange chronograph hand. Comes on a navy rubber strap but I thought that AP deployant clasp is something special and I'd love to find one on leather with thst clasp.

Yes that is gorgeous. I looked at him and said why did you show me the nicest one that I can never get? We had a laugh. Beautiful watch wow!
