MY 1st EVER ROLEX! BOUGHT TODAY!

Looks great and the bracelet looks tighter than the one on my 16233 Datejust from 1991. People who have been long time Rolex collectors may not remember how exciting it is to get your first. I've had mine for 5 months (minus about 3 weeks for service) and I still look at it with big time appreciation. Congratulations, enjoy!
