Finally got a Rolex

I wish I bought this piece 2 years ago when it was priced at $2150 usd so anyways after 2 years finally saw it again it's the same one but the owner is selling it for $3000 usd now.He claimed that everything is original on this piece including the jubilee bracelet which was never sized(pics showing missing links due to I've had it adjusted today already) no dings nor heavy scratches just light scratches.Btw it's a 16014 yr 86-87 not sure how many owners, watch didn't come with box and papers.I know it's little too late to ask but I've been doin my research for quite awhile and I'd appreciate it if I can get more inputs from you guys as I believe this is a good buy as I was able to get it down to ($3500 cad) $2690 Usd.Im really loving the watch as this is the style I've been wanting to get
But would love to hear your opinions as well.TIA

My opinion is that it's a cool watch. Steel and black just work and as a first piece, it's a good choice. Congratulations.

Congratulations...!!! That's one of my favorite watches ever. I have a similar DJ except that mine is not as nice as yours because mine has the steel bezel. I think that if the watch is in solid shape, the price is fair. If I were you I'd send it to a RSC to have it brought back to tip-top shape. I know it's extra cash but I believe it's worth it. Enjoy it in good health.
