New Member saying Hi!
Hello all,
I just thought I would say hello! I never thought I would like Rolex, I always thought they were a bit 'flash' but I tried an acquaintance's Ceramic Submariner on and have since tried on a white-dial DJII, and I have come to realise that Rolex just seems 'right' on the wrist. I usually like to be a bit understated so my aim is to get a 39mm Explorer 1 when I can get some money together (funds always seem to go straight out the door on bills rather than fun things!) and then, longer term, something a bit more 'blingy' I will look forward to reading and learning more on here! |

Welcome
Sometimes it takes a while to like Rolex watches. They evoke a lot of wrong attitudes. I hope you can get the watch you like
