Incoming!!!

[ColoradoTime]

Well…. I really didn’t see this coming. This year has started off pretty crazy. I turn 50 later this year and the only watch that I was after was a silver dial Royal Oak. I got the call for that 2 weeks ago and am very much in the honeymoon phase with it. It’s beautiful and I just love it. But that’s not the subject of this incoming.

On Thursday I got a call that I never expected. I have a very good relationship with my Rolex AD and SA. I’ve mentioned to them before that a Daytona would be an aspirational watch for me someday. I had pretty much given up on it ever being a possibility. In fact, I even posted here that I was content with my white dial speedy and that between the AD games, grey market markup and hype, etc - I was over hunting down a stainless steel Daytona. I also vowed never to pay the grey market premium for that watch.

Well - fate is funny. I got the call on Thursday. It’s perfection IMO. Man…. I think I convinced myself that it just wasn’t that great since I never expected to get one. But it’s perfection.

My wife is ready to kill me for buying another watch already when I told her just one this year. She thinks that I’m making it up that these are hard to come by….. but she will forgive me someday! Ha!!
