My first Rolex Submariner
OK, its taken me 12 months to get this photo out there, but here it is. This was the purchase that broke the bank account but didnt brake my will! 31 years of age and I am very proud of this bad boy to say I have finally purchased a Rolex.
Its a two tone Rolex with diamond markers. I spent a little more than I wanted, but hey, I've had it for 12 months now and really happy with the outcome. Included is a pic. In the mean time I purchased a 1940s vintage Tudor - More to follow on that one, and Ill put that up in the next week as well for some comments as Im trying to get more info on the era and I know there are plenty of buffs out there! |
