Pictures of the various models

I am new to the world of Rolex and I am confused by all of the different models.
I will read about a particular model, do a search to find a picture, and by the time I get back to reading I am confused as to exactly which model I just looked at!
The "for sale" section here is about the best place I've found to see great photos. Some of the sellers are great photographers of the details.
Can someone point me to a sight that has several models shown and identified for a "side by side" comparison?

Why do you feel so stupid when someone points out the obvious??
Maybe I am not smart enough to wear a Rolex. I better look at the Timex line!
I have probably done 100+ searches but I had not gone to the Rolex site.
thanks

Not all of us are that smart either. Fortunately for me not a requirement for wearing a Rolex.

The Rolex website was a great introduction and really helped me to learn the various models. However the real education came from these forums.

Welcome.

A visit to a Rolex AD could be something you want to do,
Have a chance to try some of the models and maybe a catalog.

www.swissluxury.com is great as well. Allows you to see each model, MSRP and some specs.
