New member looking for help/advice on purchasing my first :-)
Hello all.
New member here. I have been wanting a nice watch for awhile now. And I could never pinpoint one that has made me say. That's the one. It was just difficult to find a watch that I loved enough to justify the purchase. I'm 27, watch-less, and today while in Vegas I found a watch I want. A Rose gold and stainless steel datejust with the rose gold dial(either roman numerals or the lines[im sorry im not sure or the name of that]) oyster bracelet and fluted bezel. I'd be willing to buy extremely well new, or a nicely used one. What are your thoughts on purchasing my first? Thank you -Louie |

I would hold off for now, complete more research, and make a purchase from a trusted seller after you know you what you want to do.

The watch sounds beautiful in an old school way. Sit on it for a while. If 3 to six months from now if you still love the watch, make the purchase with the money you've set aside.

That is a great watch, very beautiful. I recommend you check it out with the Jubilee bracelet for comparison.
Good luck with your decision. The trusted sellers on this site can get you any watch you might want at a substantial discount. |

Yes. This exactly, buying strategies. What to expect discount-wise, etc.
I did not buy in Vegas, had no Intentions of paying their full price, I was merely mentioning that I happened to be there and found it. Thank you all. Cheers. Louie |

Spend more time doing research of all your Rolex options, and maybe AP, Omega and PP, too.
Spend less $$$ and less worry by looking at the trusted TRF sellers in our Classifieds...

Go for now. Over thinking sometimes makes it turn it in to an issue.
