Hey guys, new member here.

Always liked my watches and would have a visit to all the good watch shops in Tenerife every holiday, but never had anything particularly good, I've a couple of Tissots and a Collings and heal.

First good watch really had to be a Rolex. Been keeping an eye out but never really found one that I was happy with the condition/price/seller etc, and as a first time buyer I was too nervous to use the likes of eBay.

So this week a 2015 gmt master ii popped up in a store called watches of wales, quick call revealed them to be knowledgable and helpful, great price and all papers etc.

Should arrive in the next hour I hope! Can't wait, hopefully I'll be able to get the strap etc adjusted to my wrist size!

All arrived...





With the Collings and Heal...




I have to say it's like new. No marks at all that I could find. Registered 8th August so hopefully under the 5 year warranty?

First impression is the quality and weight, it's a stunning piece. I moved the bar in to the next section and it fits perfectly. Tempted to wear it every day.
