hello all

just another new guy

got the approval to buy a rolex from the wife, so i'm in search

either 116610 or 116610c
or EXP II

still undecided

me:
work in oil&gas, senior electrical designer/3d modeler
45 yrs young
2 kids (7&3)
wife is Masters deg. cancer nurse

most of my time is spent w/ my kids

hobby is motorcycles
been a motorcycle inst. at 1x
done trackdays
been riding about 13 yrs
only commute to an from work now

current scooter is a
2010 Aprilia Tuono Factory

wife also has an '09 Suzuki Gladius

a few ?'s:

all these preferrered sellers in the F/S section, do i pay taxes if i'm out of state?

are they AD or just resellers? or both?

the R warranty is 2yrs from date of purchase? and is transferable to the next buyer within that 2 yrs, correct?

thanks
