Sept. 9-11th WRUW this weekend guys??

I hope everyone had a great work week and are ready for a wonderful weekend. Show me what you plan to wear.




I will attending a wedding this weekend and I realized I no longer have any sort of dress watch :(
I will be wearing a grey suit so I figured my 7016 will have to do









Since its a two day affair I will be taking my 1968 6105-8000 as well. Its the one of the left.






I will be traveling back early Sunday morning to attend the Ravens vs. Steelers game!

Hope this turns out to be my lucky watch this year :)




RIP to those who lost their lives and the families affected by 9/11. It has been a decade but we all still feel the pain of a day never forgotten.

God Bless

Off to Syracuse for the weekend. I will be visiting the AD there. I'm in need of some Rolex action. The Invicta Pro Diver will be with me all weekend, on the nato and the bracelet.

Many thoughts on the eve of 9/11. I cannot watch or read the coverage; I remember well. Thoughts go out to all those who lost loved ones and those with short memories. I hope we can all remember to just be appreciative of all we are and all we have in our great Rolex Forums community.
