The One that got away from me....

I'm in the market for an original Rolex, and have been looking....
This one, got away from me while I/we were in Brazil on a cruise....
.
$4100


.
The sale has ended, but this would've been a great opportunity...IMO
.
c'est la vie!!

Yes, I suspect that after a while you will be thankful for the opportunity to buy something else.

Ones tastes and preference in models do change and I suspect that you will soon prefer a sports model Rolex (going by my own personal experience).
