I'm officially a part of this family now!
This beauty arrived today...




My first ever watch from the Rolex family. Please excuse the blurry cell phone pictures as I could hardly contain my excitement when I took them.

Thanks goes out to Wrist Candy and Dragonmaster for helping this newbie out with useful advice and tips as it made the shopping process a lot less daunting. I will forever remember this day.

I'm jealous of the strong clean look. And, superb lume.
