Pick it up on Saturday

Guys

I finally pick up my new purchase on Saturday. It is of course the GMTIIc which I've managed to get at £3,600 before the new price increase came into effect.

Really can't wait.

This will be my last purchase for sometime.

Congratulations! I think GMTIIc is the hottest Rolex model at the present time and very closely followed by the DSSD.

Thanks to all

Hi Guys

Many thanks for the advance Best Wishes and Congratulations remarks. It's great to be amongst great company here.

The GMTIIc will be my 4th Rolex purchase in 11 months. I can honestly say that i'm gonna make this my last for a while because I'm going to Australia in December for a month and if I like what I see I want to find out about making it more permanent and starting a new life over there.

The collection stands like this:

Sea-Dweller (December 2007)

GMT II Pepsi (March 2008)

Submariner LV (June 2008)

And now

GMT IIc s/s (Saturday 8th October 2008) !

Pics have been promised and I will deliver on that promise from tomorrow.

I got mine last saturday from Goldsmiths at the price before the increase. Can't fault it, superb build quality... Finding it hard to take it off my wrist and swap for the Rolex Submariner 14060
