It's time for a Celebration!
I put my name down for this watch as soon as it was unveiled. Received a call from my AD on Friday and picked it up yesterday. Apparently it was the first 41mm that they received. Still haven't figured out how to upload higher quality pictures so the color doesn't really pop in the pic I uploaded.

Fantastic. On the list for a 36, we shall see. My AD has only received one as of a couple weeks ago, and it is an exhibition piece.

Congrats! Mine is waiting to be picked up the next time I'm near my AD.

How's the texture of the dial? I heard the dial has some texture to it and the bubbles are "raised." Is that true?

This is the second one my AD received. The first one was a 36mm

From what I can see without any magnification, the bubbles aren't raised. I could be wrong but they look flat to me

+1. I know Rolex is about making money like any other company, but they went overboard with this dial. Even for free, I wouldn't take it.

A few Tudors. My main AD is in a different state. This is the first Rolex I've received from this AD.
