Lucky me!

It’s really better looking than a Grand Seiko or a Snoopy Omega, and most people won’t get one anyway; so those that don’t like it they don’t need to worry anyway as they won’t be offered one.

A most humble thanks, it reeeeeeally looks great on her for sure. Alas, don't think the 41mm is in the cards for me as it must be very hard to acquire and wear, and am very grateful the wife got hers

It is.

Its rarity is only surpassed by its beauty.

It is said that it can make the wearer feel full if they’re hungry, or hungry if they’re full.

(Said like Jeremy Clarkson) Some say, it makes you look more attractive.

(dramatic pause)

Others say, it's because they like sweet Dippin Dots.

(half a pause)

All we know is, they call it Celebration.

So I got the 36mm for my wife today for our 35th anniversary from my AD in San Jose.
I can assure you we are not a celebrity and just lucky to have a great AD. I been in waiting list for a year and got the call yesterday and picked it up
Today and she absolutely love it and I love it that she loves it.
Thanks Rolex and AD in San Jose to make it possible.

Congrats to your wife! Isn’t it great to have an AD that takes care of regular customers, who aren’t VIPs? I am lucky enough to have the same kind of AD, in the Central Valley.

I got mine within 2 weeks of asking and I am not a VIP by any imagination; just a regular buyer who has an amazing AD who goes out of the way for special occasions.
