First rolex
So yesterday i went to a local Rolex AD,with no intention of purchasing, i often window shop, and noticed a few like new pre-owned rolexs in my price range so went inside to try them on... after some negotiations and a good deal later i ended up getting a 2002 16200 Rolex Datejust in stainless steel with white dial and smooth bezel with a barrignton watch winder thrown in also. (boxed, with papers in immaculate condition). now im after advice for the 2nd watch to get for my 18th birthday in may and to ask what your first rolexs were and if you still have them?

Stunner of a DJ you have, congratulations! My first and only (for now) is a 14060M bought new for a gift to myself upon retirement.
A warm TRF welcome to you!

Welcome and congrats!
