A Dremel tool on high with a abrasive stone will probably get that rust off!

Wow! Huge congratulations! Sorry I am so late to congratulate you! This is awesome. Actually, it is my favorite Rolex. I have only seen one of these, and loved it instantly. Very hard to get this model I think. So you are one lucky guy, and I am very happy for you, if not more than slightly envious!

Thanks everyone for the well wishes on this pick up. It’s been a few minutes since I put my name on the list for this one and didn’t even think I would get the call. I’ve never worn gold before, in fact I don’t even wear my gold wedding ring any longer. I’m still trying to decide if it’s right for me, as beautiful as it is.

I can tell you I am not a two-tone fan, but I saw that one in NYC and tried it on and was converted - I'm a fan. The RG is toned down compared to YG and goes so well with the bezel colors. I think that one is classy AF!

I’ve never worn gold before, in fact I don’t even wear my gold wedding ring any longer. I’m still trying to decide if it’s right for me, as beautiful as it is. Don't concentrate on the gold only. Just the overall aesthetics of the watch. I am biased, because it is my favorite Rolex. I have only seen it once in real life. It was at a non-Rolex AD, and it was a premium over the original. I almost went for it! I had previously seen the all Everose at an AD, and didn't think I would like the TT. Sometimes you can't explain these things. But, for me, this watch just works so well. In the end, of course, you have to love it. And, after all, you don't have anything to lose. Only to gain regardless of how long you keep it. Just wear it for a while, and give it a chance.
