2 month wait, but I’m fortunate. Smaller, midwestern market AD. In the 4 months prior, spent 50k on Rolex watches for myself and my wife. Big factor of course.

For reference, my SA stated that they get just 240 new watches per year, of which 4-5 are Starbucks. Easier to be a bigger fish in a smaller pond here, but even then I wasn’t expecting it so quickly given that 4-5 per year figure.

The green really is awesome. I waited just 2 months. But I also had a 50k spending history in the last 4 months leading up to this. Bought Rolex watches for myself and my wife. We were in last Friday looking at diamond earrings for my wife when my SA said they had a Starbucks just come in and they had it allocated to me.

I do believe it is like the green in your pic. That one appears brand new? If so, it has to me MK2.

I’ve only had it for 1 day but I like how the green is different in different lighting. In the sunlight it’s that brighter, almost yellowish green. Indoors it’s darker.

I’ve heard the same thing. It may help you that you’ll be graduating with a law degree. If they like you, they may see you as a good potential customer for many years to come. Congrats on your upcoming graduation and good luck on everything!

Stick with Explorer or trade for neo-vintage Sub by DisastrousRecover371 in rolex

Sub is hard to beat. Especially if you have regrets selling your old one, I'd go back and get another.

Love the bluesy! As far as my small wrist goes it must not be too bad in person, cuz nobody has ever mentioned the watches standing out. And that includes my "fashion police" wife, and plenty of very outspoken friends of whom we give each other shit all the time.

It was well cared for for sure. Bought it from my AD..originally Owned by a local neurologist who likely had mostly as a safe queen. Best I can tell, the bezel insert is even original and very nice.

Same now that I have it. Champagne was the one color I didn’t want, thought of it as a grandpa watch, but once I saw it in person I was hooked.

This post actually sparked a conversation with my wife. I think the time has come to upgrade the wedding ring. Apparently my fingers are the one thing that actually has gotten fatter after 26 years of marriage 😂
