My first Rolex!

Hello everyone! Just purchased my first Rolex! After much deliberation I went with the Steel Submariner 114060m (no date). I love it! Thank you all for the great information and opinions in posts that helped me with this decision!

Well done, my first Rolex was also a submariner. Can't get more classic than that.

Because I own one too...my first Rolex February 2017. Also look at the bezel...its the big ceramic one. The 14060 bezel is smaller and non ceramic.
