Introduction... And, thanks.
I started to consider a Rolex as a reward and recognition to myself for all the hard work and achievements from the past few years. As I started to research my options, I came across this site. Of course, I became instantly hooked. That was six weeks ago, and I have been lurking since then. I find myself coming to this site multiple times every day, reading and digesting all the information and pictures. Just a few days ago, I decided to pull the trigger on a listing from Boris for a bnib DJII 116334 (blue index dial) but he had sold it the night before. So, my search continues...

In any case, as I suspect it is the case with many people here, the Rolex bug has bit me and I have already decided that my first one will be a BNIB Rolex, soon followed with a Sub LV and a BLNR. This is a great site and I love the camaraderie and shared passion.

A crown for your achievements!

If you put yourself in a position to buy a Rolex, then you deserve it!

I have a strong feeling that your post will prove to be prophetic. Perhaps that should be a warning at the top of the forum homepage: "Proceed at your own risk"
