Quad incoming from my local AD

I finally got the chance to collect 4 orders that I had paid for from my local AD.
I'd been out of the country a long time so hadn't had chance to collect them.

Id been waiting for the Yellow OP the longest and was really happy to get it just before it was discontinued.

One is the white gold blue dial version , the other is the steel.
I already owned the Pepsi on a jubilee bracelet and enquired if I could get an oyster bracelet for it, my AD said that it wasn't possible but they had the White gold version available and if I bought it they would get me the steel Oyster version too when one next arrived.
I thought it was a good deal so agreed

I thought you could buy an oyster bracelet on its own ... I did it for my DJ41

I think your AD is a good salesman

Kind of Odd that based in your purchase history they would find very easy that bracelet…. That cost around 2.5k usd ….. but who I’m to think different

Exactly my thoughts ... cost for a jubilee for a DJ41 from AD is 1.6k€ ...

Awesome incoming and collection but paying 10k for a steel bracelet is just silly IMO

It's just like having the same car twice so you don't have to change tires for winter

Gorgeous. All of them. Todays take homes as well. Are you showing the Rolex only or is the collection Rolex only? But big congrats. Beauties all of them.
