My First...
Hi all,

After much deliberation, I finally pulled the trigger on my first Rolex!!! I've always admired the brand, but never gave it the due it deserves. I love high-end watches, and own several (Omega, Panerai, Vacheron), but looked past Rolex - I didn't want to be one of "those guys" who buy a Rolex to impress people. Needless to say, I wish I wouldn't have waited.

I've looked at the TT DJII about a million times, and after spending some time here, finally decided to take the plunge. HUGE thanks to DavidSW for an absolutely flawless transaction. He's as good as they come.

I look forward to meeting all of you!

Cody

Congrats on taking the plunge. I tried that one on at the AD not long ago--it looks even better in person.
