Icon20 TRF Exclusive...Finally!!
Hi Guy & Girls....

First of all I would like to thank this wonderful forum and its knowledgeable members for the education I have received in Rolex watches, I've learnt so much in the time I’ve spent here and made many good friends.

Guess what!!!! Yes, I finally done it!!!

I've got my first Rolex!!! and I'm over the moon

My AD called me up on Thursday, told me it had come in from Rolex. I went and pick it up on Sunday with my family. I was like a little boy just got a new toy!!

I just wanted to share my good news with you all.

A Special thank you goes to - 082013 - Adam, The GMT Master - Chris and Subexplorer - Abel...These guy's have helped & supported me all the way in my purchase.

Nice! Tip: Don't ever go swimming with that bad boy. It'll drag you right to the bottom like a huge anchor.

Really. It's true.

No, really.

Brilliant!!

So tell us Umster, just how cool is it to be the one to peel those little stickers off. When I got my new Explorer a few months ago I savored every moment of it.

Love the tag that says swimpruf, I'd say that one is a bit more than that!

Well, in fairness, I wasn't kind. I told outrageous lies in an attempt to be funny.

The choice indicates the stature of the man.

Today, Umster you are taller than the tallest and smarter than the smartest.

Enjoy the great machine.
