A(nother) new member who's caught the bug
Just a hello as a new member.
I bought an Omega Seamaster back in 2000 rather than spending more on a Rolex, and regretted it after a couple of years, particularly after buying my wife a Rolex in 2005... Finally couldn't resist the BLNR so purchased it in Old Bond St London Feb 2015. Of course I love it. I'd waited long enough to scratch the itch, but now the Rolex fever has taken hold badly. So hello, looking forward to trawling the threads and posts and already hooked on the For Sale section. I have a dangerous desire to buy a 16570 explorer ii black dial as the tool Rolex I've identified would actually suit me better than the more showy BLNR. Watch this space. I understand the requirement to be a Pledge member to post in the Sales section, but I'm assuming prospective buyers can be newcomers like me? |

Welcome, I did the same thing. In 97 bought Seamaster quartz and waited until 03 to buy a bluesy. Better late than never. Congratulations on your GMT.

Welcome to TRF, and yes to your question.
The secret to this hobby is buying correctly. Have a look at Chrono24....not to buy, but to see the prices.
