First Rolex

I came on this forum for the first time in 2015-2016 as a complete newbie to ask for advice on purchasing a first nice watch. I had always liked watches, but did not know a lot then. Around that time, I was only really starting the journey (seriously), and learning. I was looking into a Reverso, a Milgauss, and some others. The overwhelming response from the forum was to get a Rolex. It took a while, but here we are... my first Rolex:

Servus! Enjoy it in good health :)
Also... having lived in MUC myself, I feel like a SD is more original than the sub/gmt. I feel like every other guy in MUC has a sub/gmt

You picked a great first watch. I think that read text on the dial really makes this watch look extra special, and the larger size is nice too. Especially since Rolex usually has smaller sized watches.
