In time for the summer!
When the 2014 new offshores were announced, I was feeling kinda blah about it... I thought it was pretty minimal enhancements and thought I would probably give it a miss. Like many, I was expecting something with a ceramic bezel in the redesigned 42mm, kinda like the special Doha edition (v sweet!!!!)Fast fwd to beginning of April when they were launched. I got to view and try each one on (except for the white diver and new 44's). Same feeling, not impressed. I only thought the new blue dial with orange hands looked kinda sharp and sporty but still didn't really do much for me... It reminded me of the ROC blue and orange that came out a few years back but nothing more. However, little did I know that my subconscious was thinking the opposite. Long story short, I went back to the AD this past Monday to have a look at the new navy again. Well the rest is history! (darn you subconscious). Anyways, in time for the summer with this sporty new one! Trust me, it builds on you each

5712 White Gold
I realize the 5712 in stainless steel is very difficult to find. I imagine the white gold version is easier to source. Is that a correct assumption or am I off base? With the current explosion in prices for the stainless pieces, doesn't looking at gold make a lot of sense?

About to take the plunge....Again.....
Recently picked up the 5970 and am contemplating a 5980. Is it a good fit? In dressier clothes most of the time, thus my contemplation. Thanks. The collection to date:

Rolex Hurting Everyone
Can anyone explain what is happening with Rolex? The AD's can't get any SS sports models. It's impossible to get a Daytona and will be the same for the SS BLRO unless you spend insane money at an AD. I won't be able to get either watch. I'm about to write off the brand as I feel they are really screwing their customers. The BLRO is front and center on their website but you won't be able to get one... disgrace!

Chance to get DSSD, got to sell GV though..
Hi all,Got a chance to get a DSSD (new) at an attractive price, however don't quite have enough funds to seal the deal.Got to flip my Milgauss GV black dial to do so. That will leave me with DSSD and Submariner C Date.Also in the mix is a GMT2 LN which I could buy without flipping my GV.A bit torn ATM, DSSD is awesome in every way to me. Just the one niggle, the date is a bit hard to see with my 48 Y/O eyes so not 100% perfect to me and for my preference.However, it's a DSSD !!!!!!! And I love everything else about it.Thoughts ?Best , Peter.
