Basel Intro - 2 Pics for interested parties

So I had to go to the short hills mall today when I left the office to get the fiancé birthday gifts. As I was looking at the directory before I went I notice there was an AD there, bonus! I had to check three stores for her gifts so I knew I would pass this AD. When I passed I seen a crowd around the Rolex display. To my surprise I stumbled on a Basel Release party, with a nice crowd. I ended up trying on the two GMT’s and here are quick unprofessional, I had to get back to the Bloomingdales lady pictures. I met a very nice saleswoman and overall had a fun 15 minutes. I confirmed my feelings about the CHNR and that’s the one that had my heart. Both beautiful and both would be a pleasure to own.

Agreed and I’m not a TT guy one bit!

Interesting that they've chosen to 'highlight', the GMT - MASTER II, script, on the TT.
Was this done on the previous 'brown jobs' ?


Thanks for posting.

At least that one you can explain to the wife more easily than the key one.
