Welcome to TRF Beth

Excellent taste I still love my 16233 DJ, I love the classics :thubmsup:

I wish my lovely wife would ask for a Rolex, she'd have one in a heartbeat and what ever she chose, alas, she has never worn a watch and doesn't plan too either, I have given her watches as presents in the past, no luck :-(

Hope you have a great time here

Enjoy,

Dave.

I am looking forward to trying them on! Its all part of the exciting process of buying such a luxury item. I might have a trip to London, there will probably be more selection in the bigger stores there.

Hi Dave,

I am sure if I work on my hubby he will cave in. At least I hope he will. I would love to see him wearing a Rolex. There is a AD in London who sell used and trade ins so maybe he will agree to get one from there. I think it might be the price thats putting him off. I can understand that. He wants me to have one but buying two might seem a bit extravagent to him. I will find a way to get one on his wrist!!

Welcome Beth & Rolex Sweep

I think as suggested try the larger sizes, the dial on the ladies size is so small, I'm sure I'm not the first person to have sent that back because the intended beneficiary couldn't easily read the time

Welcome Beth! I have a ladies 26 mm ladies with the Rolex Jubilee hidden clasp bracelet, like the picture you posted. I have had mine 2 years and I love it!

I am starting to feel the urge for a larger Submariner. So it is okay to have more than one Rolex when you get bitten by the Rolex bug.

Welcome aboard! Kaya
