Hi all.......here's the new addition....!!!!!!!

Hi all,
After a long time here's my new addition...
I must say this watch is a superbly engineered watch, however, the classic SD is a winner IMO
Anyways here are the pics..........

They are some excellent photos

Interesting how the coronet on the crown is standing up perfectly I wonder if this was Rolex factory set?

Anyway, I agree the engineering is superb. Should be safe in the bathtub or shower

Congrats

Congrats
even I felt myself lucky for having a perfectly lined up crown and this is the second Rolex after my SD, in which I've got such an aligned crown

LOL-X!!!! WHAT!?!?! NO Ashu! You can't get it Wet!!!!! As a matter of fact, if the humidity in your area gets over 30%, you should put it in a climate-controlled room....

What is outstanding on this watch is the way the domed crystal meets seamlessly well with the ceramic bezel. There's no lip or step, very well integrated

Wow, Ashu, that's a wonderful addition.

Your collection has grown quite large, and I'm sure
the members here would love to see a group
shot when ever you get the chance.

Well done my friend. Wear it in good health.

Jeff
