New member Intro

Hello everyone,

My name is Andrew and I am a proud owner of a DJ II. I received the watch as a wedding present from my in law's back in June. This is my first Rolex but certainly not my last. I've been hooked since I got the watch and want to add a Sub down the line.

Just got my wedding photos back the other day but unfortunately I don't have any close up's of the watch. However, this one came out pretty decent. I hope to learn a lot here on TRF!

Congrats, great watch for any occasion.
A Submariner would be a worthy addition
The green submariner is my favourite Sub because of its camelion dial/bezel.

Nice, congrats - on the marriage and the DJII!

It's an awesome watch, and it looks perfect on you. (I assume you wear a tux every day after 6pm.)

Awesome pic! The white supreme lows were my grails but I was never able to get one. I've had a couple supreme hi's though and a bunch of other hyped sb's. Haven't been into sneakers in a while, just not creative enough for a new handle.
