Right...like slipping on a pair of old blue jeans, it just fits and feels comfortable.

Looks great on you. This watch with a pair of jeans and a black shirt is awesome. Put a suit on with it and it looks great too. Enjoy it for years to come.

The only other Rolex that ever caught my eye was the Explorer 1. The simplicity has an almost Zen like quality to it. Even at 39 mm it's a visual masterpiece - IMHO

Arriving tomorrow - pics to follow at that time!!!
Congratulations - enjoy ...
