RO Chrono - silver/white or blue - SS
I'm having a bit of a crisis, hoping for some advice.I posted previously about wanting to buy a ROC in the UK. I went round all the stockists in London this week and there no SS versions in stock anywhere. I was also told getting hold of a blue one is 'impossible' as they are boutique only and there is no boutique in the UK. Obviously this is via the AD route. I found a BNIB silver/white version for a good price (considering the price rise that has just occurred) from another source (a physical shop where I tried it on) and have paid a deposit, intending to complete the purchases tomorrow.I have been looking online this morning though and keep thinking I should hold out for a blue one, even though I haven't seen one in the metal.

I very much liked them but didn't see myself owning one. But after meeting a gentleman on a cruise ship recently who was wearing one and having a conversation about it and then also perusing the many photos on this forum and elsewhere for months, I decided I had to have one to join my GMT BLNR, Daytona Ceramic and SubC Date. So yesterday it arrived and I love it. I've had other Rolex watches come and go also, but this one shall not leave.So why does it honor my late father? Well, you see my father's name was Kermit. In fact, my middle name is also Kermit. So yes, this is definitely a watch I should own. It's an unusual name, yes, but a very personal name for me - not just a green muppets character. And when I wear it I will always think of
