Incoming! The Yacht Has Docked
I've been eyeing this for about six months and finally found the right opportunity to buy it. It's now #5 in my Rolex rotation.

Very nice collection. You still need a Daytona, a Sub and a GMT. LOL

One more gold to even things out, I’d say. Two two tones, two stainless, and two gold.

It is! I had really wanted the root beer and then, when I saw the black dial, it just didn't really move me (not that I could have gotten it anyway). When I saw the chocolate dial with red lettering on this, I knew that it was what I was looking for and thus started the quest to get one. It was waylaid a little bit by the other watches I bought this year, but, was finally able to figure it out.

Love it, truly a great acquisition! The chocolate dial looks so much better in person. Congrats again!
