Merry Christmas to Me! My first NEW Rolex!
And a NOS one at that. I guess I could call it my Christmas/I finished chemo/I'm about to have surgery gift to myself.
 I went by my local AD to drop off my T-Bird, because some moisture got into it. While I was waiting for the watchmaker to come out, I dpotted something in the case that made my mouth water. The salesman explained that it was new, but from around 2007, It's a Z serial #. He made me a deal I couldn't refuse, and I walked out with a watch I've drooled over before. So who's up for a reveal?

Great guess, but not this time. Although I sure looked hard at the TT RG with slate dial.  First hint, it's definitely a TT.....
