Hello From Ft. Lauderdale, Florida
Hello everyone from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida! Hope all is well.
My first post/thread on a watch forum. Have to say I'm amazed at the amount of knowledge and experience shared on this forum.,,,,, I have learned so much in the few days I have spent reading many of the threads. Hoping to purchase a submariner soon, and looks like I have come to the right place to gain knoweldge/wisdom, and perhaps even buy such a beloved watch. Thanks to The Rolex Forum (TRF) for putting together such a great community of watch enthusiast, and enabling everyone to share. If anyone has any tips/advice for a first time Rolex purcahser, please share. Cheers,  Rick |

Welcome to TRF.
Take a good look around and find one that makes you happy. You can start by looking at the Rolex website and this forum. Make sure you try some on at a local AD, don't ever buy without trying one on. Most importantly "Buy the Seller".

Welcome to the forum...Find something that you like & wait till one of the trusted sellers here on the forum have it for sale. You'll save alot of $$$ shopping here rather than from an AD.
