A late gift of an Oyster Perpetual
My wife knowing how I can over think the watch buying process made it easier by ordering a 36mm OP in white grape for me it was supposed to arrive for valentines but came later. No real biggie, I have been going back and forth for about a year and was still debating.
I tre deh 39 found dial size to big in proportion to the watch, tried the 36mm 3 6 9 bud dial. But something about the white grape called to me. It seems as I get older I like watches with colour. So here she is in all her glory thanks to my wife.

I always like the white grape. I think my next Rolex will be an oyster perpetual and 36 mm. I find the simplicity of just the time to be very elegant. I like the 369 in blue.

Fantastic. The 36mm has a better choice of dials than the 39mm in my opinion and that is a beauty.
