Thanks again folks. Hollister just hating on PM Rolexes. "I just like watches, not mindless bling". Hurtful words but I respect his opinion as I do everyone's. I just wish he would express them here in the Rolex forum instead of the open discussion so we could have a thoughtful discussion as to their horological value and Rolex owners could participate.

Well to each their own.

Can't wait. Will post better photos and side by sides once I get it.

I wear a 1983 TT Date (15003). A lot of folks think a 34mm is a "women's watch" and a TT watch is an "old man's watch". I'm 47 and a guy. Sometimes folks just have to crap on other people's taste to make them feel better.

I also like to avoid unnecessary drama. Your incoming watch is a nice looking watch. As for what others have to say, you know what opinions are like.
