First Rolex: 1995 14060..How'd I Do?

Hi All,

After years of collecting other vintage watch brands, I've been camping on eBay etc.. for months looking for my first Rolex. I finally settled on the classic, simple, perfectly-proportioned 14060. My priorities were uniform tritium lume, a fairly crisp case (visible lug bevels etc..), original/matching hands/dial/bezel, and box/papers.

After some false starts I just received this 1995 model and I think it's a keeper. Runs fewer than 3 seconds per day slow, lume on everything is dead and looks uniform under UV light, included all boxes and other materials except for the guarantee paper. While the 25-year-old case isn't perfect, the bevels are basically intact and the bezel is still sharp enough to cut my enemies.

How'd I do? Also bracelet or strap? (I'm liking the strap at the moment).
