Suggestions For First Rolex

[buffalo wind]

I will be traveling to South Dakota next month as I have been chosen by the tribal elders to be a member of an advisory committee focusing on the development of a small gaming casino.

My business suit already ordered, I am now considering a new wristwatch in order to present a more professional appearance amongst the developers and investors. I currently wear a G-Shock in my profession as a construction supervisor.

What model Rolex would best serve this purpose? I am strictly a blue jeans person and would prefer something that is all-around practical but not too showy. Should I consider other brands as well?

My current and available allotment towards this purchase is roughly $5000. If I sell my extra Jeep, I can add another $4500 to the mix but would prefer not to go over $10,000 for a wristwatch expenditure. We are a humble people and wearing an overly expensive watch to these meetings might send out the wrong smoke signals.

I also should note that every fall we hold a tribal pow-wow which is open to the public and a watch which is compatible with my formal headdress and buckskin attire would be ideal. While my ancestors used the sun and moon to estimate the time, a watch that is compatible with a modern Native-American theme would work best.

Thank you for your consideration and insights.
