Hi... I'm new to TRF and I'm looking to own my first Rolex. I want to buy a NEW dress watch and perhaps a second hand daily wear watch.

Any tips on buying new?

Second hand I would prefer to travel and see the watch... I'm based in the uk.

Welcome to TRF. Take a look at the sales section and the buyers/sellers who's who section.
