Hey Guys,
new to the rolex forum.its been great reading the posts so far about the different types of rolex models out there and to see the old vs the new. I have been into watches for years now and currently sporting a swiss army watch(great watch for the price). I have always admired rolex watches as they are in a class of itself. I am in the market to purchase one in the near future. i am in my late 20's and looking for a more modern model. The specific model/ type of watch i am looking for is the DateJust II 41mm, silver or white face with a roman numeral dial (I have not seen too many of these out there with the white or silver face). I want a fluted bezel and prefer a jubilee bracelet(does this bracelet exist with this type of model?). I want the whole watch to be silver or white gold(not sure which one is more common or if they come in both??) What would be the best way to go about searching for this specific type of watch and what would be a good price for a certified pre-owned model? Is ebay to be trusted? or would it be more worth while to go into an actual shop to get a better price in person? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated! |

Welcome to TRF!
Just my 2¢ on your questions... The DateJust II doesn't come on a Jubilee (yet, that is) There aren't silver or white dials with roman numerals. Fluted bezel is on the SS/WG version or TT version. No such thing as a Silver case - never will be. What would be the best way to go about searching for this specific type of watch? - Start with visiting an AD to review all your case, metal, dial and bracelet options... What would be a good price for a certified pre-owned model? - Review listings in the Classifieds here on TRF. Is ebay to be trusted? - Only by more experienced buyers. Or would it be more worth while to go into an actual shop to get a better price in person? - Try the trusted sellers here once you know the exact model(s) you're after - better pricing than the AD.
