Hello All!
Hello to all of you!
About me: I've never really been particularly interested in watches, but I sort of caught the bug while strolling along Fifth Avenue visiting jewelry stores with my wife. Since then, I've been reading about Rolex watches and watching videos like every day, and I've been all over the board when considering how to start. (Sounds like a Rolex collection is in my future). Anyway, the classic sub seems like a great place to begin. I tried to pick a user name that would relate to Rolex watches, and was happy to see this one was available. Something like "embezeler" sounded clever, but I figured that might be a poor choice if I ever want to buy or sell something on here. Looking forward to learning from all you fine Rolex devotees! Mods: My apologies if this is the wrong subforum (I didn't see a "newbie" area). If this is in the wrong place, please feel free to move it and apply suitable punishment! |

Thanks B,
I took my time deciding on the watches I liked most (Rolex included) and I have kept them all in the family.

It's pretty funny. I found myself watching youtube Rolex videos, and one of them talked about Fifth Avenue being a prime example of where not to go if you're looking for a discount from an AD.
Thanks for all the welcome messages guys. |
