After 2 years of waiting, I finally picked up my rolex grail wg blue smurf from my ad today. Love the weight , and the flat blue dial. I am looking forward for my incoming wg blk dial sub soon by the end of this year. ...

I think this is the best looking Rolex there is. Perhaps my judgment is “colored” by my love of blue! I owned one when it was first released and sold it to a friend who lusted after it and couldn’t afford a new one. So, sold it to him at a very

attractive price. I couldn’t stand being without it so I stupidly went and bought another and the whole thing cost me a bit of money. But that’s what we do for our friends right? I should say former friend as I found out later when I saw him and asked abo...

For my part, I hesitate between I love I do not love ... the dial and the blue bezel have a fresh and original side. The gray metal is my preference compared to a yellow gold model. But there is something that blocks me, maybe because for me Rolex is stee...

Not the Marseille blue ? That is because you looked at it while standing in the shadow ;-)

I understand your view about the steel as opposed to gold, being that those models are for sports, to make the most of them it is of course better to own them in steel (less maintenance), but if you can, the heft and feelts of gold is something magic.

It was not « la cagne » in the south yesterday.

Congratulations on your new and incoming gold pieces

Curious (may be a silly ?) are you still able to receive any discount on solid gold pieces from AD's? I did receive a decent discount on a solid gold Daytona, but that was a couple of years ago. Cheers!

No discount

I used to get 10% discount back 3-4 yrs ago but anymore Now there is a waiting period on all rolex sport models

thanks for the insight
