My First Rolex - DJ II
After lurking on this forum for a couple of weeks I just bought my first Rolex from a local authorized dealer. I initially wanted a milgauss but I splurged a little more. I have a small wrist but I like bigger watches. I am satisfied and look forward to buying a SS Daytona down the road.

This is an absolutely gorgeous watch!! I originally wanted to get the Milgauss for my DF as well but the DJ II is just too beautiful to resist (plus the no-date thing was a problem for him)! The fluted bezel sparkles and the black face is so classic. Congrats!

Thank you all for the welcome and kind words. I haven't stopped wearing the watch since I took delivery. Now I'm already deliberating what to get next
