Hi Mark,

Welcome to TRF. Is this one with or without the date feature? Either way, you're an outright winner!!

Cheers - JJ

Hey, welcome, this is actually first post as well. I just purchased by first rolex as well. I bought my greenie sub and love it to death. Difficult to wear it on a date, I end up looking at it too much and of course my date feels like I am rushing to get the date over with.

Welcome Mark.

Scratchs are normal and cannot be avoided.

Eventually the watch develops a comfortable patina. After a few years you can have the whole thing buffed out like new.


And welcome to matt as well
