My first Rolex!!
After weeks of indecisiveness on which model I wanted to purchase as my first Rolex, I visited DavidSW's boutique in Orlando. He is a great guy and a top-notch seller. He allowed me to try on several different pieces, and I finally settled on the beauty below. I've always wanted a DateJust because my father had a Datejust and I remember how proud he was of it. As a first time Rolex buyer, this forum was great and really helped eased my nerves about purchasing from a TRF seller.

Congrats. Great watch. Just had the same watch with the smooth bezel arrive a few weeks ago from DavidSW. In fact I have another package going out to him today.

Congrats on your purchase. The DJ is the first thing that pops in my mind when I hear the name "Rolex" or "Swiss watch".
