Today is the Day!!! New watch lots of pics!

Hi Guys,

Been a long time watch enthusiast and have owned a couple of watches, panerai, tag, Baume, etc., but finally found my way to the Rolex owners club. Thanks so much to Caliberswiss and Greg(Mosco) for this amazing watch. Never hesitate to do business with such a great guy. Here goes:

Arrived next day:


Packaged great,


Oh what could it be for my first Rolex?


Looks great so far...shaking like a leaf!


THere it is...a white dialed milgauss!




A quick sizing and on it went!






Looks great with a pair of Jeans here in Texas!



Thanks again Greg! Gonna be a good weekend! Cheers everyone

THanks Everyone....

JJ it was between the white and the black as I was not really a fan of the GV's dial...I like the uniform markers, but I think I made the right choice!

Great looking watch. The most recent posts on the Milgauss here on The Rolex Forum have gotten the best of me. I am now on the hunt for a Milgauss. I used to have an Explorer I and loved the simplicity. The only downside on the Explorer I was it was too small for my wrist. The Milgauss seems to fill the void.

Wear your watch in good health.

I too prefer the white dial, and it looks great on your wrist.

FWIW, I feel that all future watch unveilings on this forum should be accompanied by a Striptease.

Can the mods make this a prerquisite ?

Wow that looks NICE on your wrist. When I first ran across those watches I was not impressed, now I am starting to think it may be my next. Congrats on a fine looking addition to your collection.
