My First Rolex

at age 20, I purchased my first rolex TODAY. I got a tt datejust with champagne dial. It is a 1994 model. I think i got a good deal, $2800. It is still at the jewelers because they are buffing out some scratches for me. I am going to pick it up tomorow. I am VERY excited. pics coming

Congratulations with the aquisition!!! Cannot wait for your pictures! The TT with champagne is definitely a very well recognized and classic design.

Oh and by the way, if you ever go to NZ, don't say that you were not warned...



Excellent choice on the TT Datejust!!

We'd worn you about more than the sheep in NZ, but the descriptors would border on obscenity.
