Hello from southwest Florida
Hey everyone,
Joined here about a year ago, but unfortunately my interest in Rolex's kind of dwindled with my last year of college. But I'm graduating Saturday and am back in the game looking to pickup my first Rolex in the next few months!! I currently have two TAG's, but can't wait to have a crown on my wrist. I play a lot of golf (PGA Member) and am looking forward to becoming a part of this community. The Rolex that I have picked out mentally is a Submariner with a black dial, and yellow gold. Born and raised in Pittsburgh I've always dreamed of having a black and gold Rolex. Thanks for reading, peace hooves- |

$5500 - $9000 would be about right. You'll notice that's a HUGE range though. One thing to think about is whether or not you prefer a ceramic bezel and whether or not the rehaut needs to be engraved.
