The Mistress was finally home with me !!!

The Mistress watch that is

Why I call it a mistress watch? Well I always wanted a GMT2C but always ended up getting other models.....

When I am about to buy my first Rolex which is the Subbie...
I got to choose between Sub and GMT2C... Ended up getting the Sub for it's iconic look

Then Milgauss Gv vs GMT2c.... Thought to myself that this will be my last watch... Choose the Gv over GMT as I thought that they look pretty much the same

Then Daytona over gmt2c.... No need for any reasons nor explanations

Then the 112 over GMT for a change and hunger to finally join the darkside

I wanted to thank my friend Kevin aka CX007 for letting me have the Mistress watch aka Winnie

And ofcourse for letting me try his awesome 233




and now finally... The Mistress watch is finally home






Thanks again to Kevin aka CX007


Ps... This is actually a cont... to my other thread yesterday.

Congratulations!! The GMT looks better on your wrist. IMHO the Pam looked a bit large for you.

Hey Carlos.

Looks great on you mate. And it was great to meet up with you yesterday.

I must admit that I am sad to part with that GMT. Wear it in good health!

Cheers!

Thanks for letting me have this stunning watch mate
I knew this baby is not going anywhere the moment it landed on my wrist

Nice meeting you and it really feels good chatting for almost 3 hours with a WIS like you
