Hello!

I am looking at watches, and one of the options I've considered is getting a Datejust 36 16233 from my birth year - 1992.

Currently, I'm only considering buying domestic and with a 12 month guarantee, which seems to be the standard for used luxury watches here in Denmark - naturally from companies specializing in used luxury watches, and guaranteeing the authenticity of their watches.

I've never had a vintage watch before, let alone a Rolex. My impression of Rolex is that their watches are of a good enough quality that I don't need to be "afraid" of buying a watch of such a vintage - assuming that it's been treated properly and serviced as well.

Are there any things I should know, before looking further into the idea? Any potential problems with the 3135 or in general with the 16233?

Thank you in advance :-)
