First Time Rolex Owner - GMT IIC

I recently bought my first Rolex from Oscar (bodybump). A call to him last Friday and I had the watch in my possession this past Monday morning. I haven't had a chance to take proper pictures of the watch, so this crappy iphone picture will have to do. As you can see, I didn't wipe it down prior to taking the iphone picture either. LOL!!

For my first Rolex, I went with a GMT IIC.

Thanks Oscar and thanks TRF for the wealth of information that led to my first Rolex purchase!

Thanks,
Jeff

Congratulations and welcome.
Just a note of warning though, If you mention who you purchased the watch from, your post will end up in the Classified section under Buyer and Seller. I mentioned a certain seller 1 time and went to take photos and poof, I was relegated to the classifieds. Just giving you a heads up.
