Hi all,

My first post on this forum.

I bought my first Rolex a few years ago, a pre-owned 2004 F-serial Sub LV. At the time I was undecided between a GMTII and a sub, but the LV came available at a good price. I didn't know much about them but liked the look of the green bezel insert. Plus it was a full set.

It's been my daily watch ever since but now I'm thinking I should look after it a bit more, so it will be retiring into my safe and only coming out for special occasions! I'm now looking for a new daily, maybe a GMTII I originally wanted (ideally a coke bezel) or a non-date sub.

Rich.

Oh I will still wear it, just not everyday. At the moment I only take it off at night, I wear it for work, visiting sites, doing the gardening, swimming on holiday, working on my cars, I really should be a bit more careful with it. I'd feel more comfortable sharing the use with another watch.
