Incoming!

After 5 1/2 years and 2435 TRF posts, this is my first incoming grail thread.
My AD ordered a precious metal Rolex for me this afternoon.
He expects it to arrive next week.
Pictures and first impressions will be posted upon arrival.

Pre-congrats! Platona is the odds on favorite?
Well, any PM Rolex is Grail-worthy, but a Platona would kick a$$!
Hope you're doing your push ups...those PM Rolexes get HEAVY!
