Don’t do this to me 😭

Weird, I had the exact opposite experience with the Zulu time. Wasn’t really in my interest or on my radar until I took a look at the AD in person and it blew me away. I’ve had that same experience with other watches though, it all depends. Usually the ones I hype up in my mind for a while tend to be underwhelming once I see them, and ones I’m not too interested in blow me away in person.

A hassle to open up? It takes 10 seconds with an oyster case. Big red flag tbh. Any Rolex purchase should be made with the utmost and extreme caution and it’s not an unreasonable thing to ask for.
