Rolex

PuristS Here are live pictures of the new ROLEX Yachmaster and DAY DATE watches with the new ROLEX automatic movement. I am a cynical convert to Rolex at this Baselworld 2015 show. Yes...you read it here first. I held them in my hands and cuddled them and...  

Thanks MTF for the live pics of the YM and DD. Interesting about the movement, looking forward to hearing more about your impressions. Regards, ED-209
