wow nice forum

This has been a great educational forum.
More informative than Rolex's own site. I find it odd that Rolex's pictures on their website of their own watches are old and out of date. (At least the YM pictures had no "ROLEXROLEX" + Serial number found under the crystal)

I have been itching for a Rolex for the last 5 years. If I see the Rolex sign outside the jewelery store I'll go in, to look and drool. I have the money but I am that little baby chick that is hesitant to get out of the bird's nest. Well I turn 40 next month and I am finally ready to fly.

1st watch I plan to purchase is a Yacht Master TT with a blue dial. Since it's my first Rolex I plan to purchase a used "M" or "V" to get my feet wet with. Since I am looking for a used one I might land up with a TT YM that may not have a blue face. (So if you have a TT YM and you are looking to upgrade... PM me... you never know) Does YM come with a black face version? if so can you point me to your /a pic of it? (or post it here)

I don't even own one yet and I have The Rolex Addiction.

2nd watch I will probably purchase is a Daytona. Not really set on the specifics, but I plan it to be the dressy flashier of the two.

Welcome

Be very careful if you are buying a watch over the internet.
