Incoming Datejust 36mm

After debating for almost a year whether "it's time" to get Rolex and waiting almost 4 months I got my very 1st! I have always wanted Datejust since forever! I never wore ladies' (small) watches, it's just too feminine for my taste. I retired my Michele Art Deco watch. I wore Cartier Tank Solo in leather and my Fossil CH-2579 alternately.

The sales associate who helped was off yesterday but she said she'll be in Sunday. I couldn't wait another day and drove immediately to the AD and got the watch. I texted the (two) SAs who helped me few months ago to let them know that I have it. I will go see them next week to thank them personally.

I'm squealing with joy and excitement!


P.s.
Sorry for the not so good shot. I was waiting in the car while my roommate was getting gas. I took the pic in a rush tee hee

Classic size, amazing modern blue dial and it's a datejust.

I agree. The 36mm DateJust proportions are timeless.
