Torture

Sitting in a bar with customers. After a debacle with FedEx, I was just able to pick up my new blue YM at the tail end of the day. Raced to a client dinner. Sitting here thinking bout my new blue beauty sitting in its FedEx box in the back of my jeep.

Torture.

Ha. No time to remove stickers a size it.

Wearing it is not the concern. Opening it is.

Don't worry Seth, the time will pass. You're already 41 minutes closer to your new YM since you made your original post! Congrats.

Well hot damned. Box opened, watch sized, stickers coming off.

Pics to follow in the AM. This thing is pure beauty.

For me: size, design, contrast, feeling, look and the entire package are the shiznit.

I'm am, for the moment, quite content. I really like this watch.

Ha. Same indeed brother. But that was kind of long time ago.

A lot has happened since then.

Congrats! I find the contrast the blue maxi dial and plati bezel bring is extraordinary

Purty sure he didn't leave it out in the open with a big "brand new rolex here" sign.

wrist shots as promised.

this thing is really a really awesome mix of old and new. i love the maxi dial without the super case. the bracelet is same as the GMT IIC and is a dream. the comfort levels are off the chart. it is a sporty watch that is perfect in a casual setting or a dressy setting. it is tool without being too big or blocky. and it is just damed sexy. loving the dark blue dial!!!!
