My first !

Hi guys,

just received my first Rolex yesterday, and what a watch it is !

An LNIB Blue TT Sub-C with diamond indexes, what more could a guy ask for ?

Unfortunately I had to wait for the watch over the weekend, so here are some quick snaps from in the car just outside of Fedex :)


The first large carton, wonder what it contains:




Hehe it contained a medium size box, let's see what that one is holding



A... Well, enough with the talking, just enjoy the (crappy) pics:















Thanks for looking

Wow! You certainly didn't cut any corners to get into the line, did you?

Congratulations. I know you'll be walking on air for awhile.

Nice one buddy! But I wonder what happened to the large outer box? Looks like some beast tried to munch on it!
