Thought I'd say hello! Got my first Rolex.

DATEJUST 36m
Stainless Oyster Band
Silver Dial
Stick Markers
Fluted Bezel

It's so easy to use! This is only my second nice watch. I've had an Omega SeaMaster for 10 years now. It's been perfect as a daily watch, just not very dressy obviously. This DATEJUST is just dressy enough. The fluted bezel and Oyster band make it not so formal.

Hope to have it forever!

thanks! i need glasses....i can't find my serial number anywhere. the manual shows me the location, but my watch has a band on it, so it's not visible i guess?

sales staff filled out my warranty card and the tag has the serial number as well, but wanted to confirm it. it is somewhere in SUPER small script like on the Omega, or just in the one spot hidden by band?

one neat thing - i notice the date changes really fast. i like that :)

It is nice to see the classic Datejust enjoyed. A wonderful watch, my favorite Rolex and imo the best 'do it all watch' money can buy.

Big congrats !
