A new edition to my family.......

The new edition to my family has arrived. My GMT II 16710 Coke!! I have to say I'm delighted. I had excelent service from David Duggan, they even swapped out the black insert for a Coke which I think gives the watch a really striking look. I wasn't sure about the Pepsi but maybe that's an option for the future.
I think she sits really well next to my YM, the only problem now is which one to wear!










An here's a little pic of my real son!


Thanks for looking.

Congrats on the most versatile Rolex ever.
I hope that you kept the black insert and you have already order the Pepsi insert.
Future upgrade a jubilee or super jubilee bracelet and an early welcome to the 6 in 1 club

Cheers for the great comments, We've got another little one on the way... not another watch, a baby.
That was my reasoning behind the second Rolex purchase. What shall I do if its a girl?? Maybe a ladies YM, that way I can keep the GMT and pass on the Platty's to the children.
