Buying My First Rolex - Update: I received the call today! Latest: Ive got it!
Original Post: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=719932
Hi Everyone, So I posted on Saturday that I received the call and was heading in to get my first Rolex - The Explorer. As promised here is the pics below - an amazing experience and a proud day for me. Ever since a young age I aspired to owning my first Rolex and after not doing very well in my school years ive managed to turn it around and achieve some things, capping it off so far with this beauty just after my 26th Birthday. I will probably post another thread next week giving a little review of how im getting on but if anyone has any questions please ask away. Im very happy - hope you guys enjoy the pics and im happy im now officially party of the best club :) Last edited by Joe_Row; 21 January 2020 at 02:54 AM.. Reason: grammar Issue |

Congratulations! Happy for you and enjoy the purchase. It looks like the AD also gave you red carpet treatment as well.
Enjoy it! |
