Hi from Australia.
Hi all,
I joined as I am looking to buy my first Rolex. I have a few other nice watches, but no Rolex as yet. I am hoping some info here will help me find what I am after in my VERY limited budget. :) I know what I want, but finding it is not so easy. Anyhow hope to learn a little here, and perhaps even find my first Rolex. :)

I am after a.
My budget is tight, about 3k USD which is about 5k AUD after import duties to Australia. Will go a little higher for the right watch :) Rolex Datejust 2-tone Mens Watch 36mm in VG fine cond. and working well. :) I would like a BLUE dial preferably, or white. Black as a third preference. I dont like the gold dials. Even with the diamond hour markers if around. Or with Roman numerals preferably. With the original Rolex two-tone solid 18k yellow gold and stainless steel Jubilee bracelet in very good cond, not much stretch. :) Probably around the 1980 to 1995 era. |

Thanks again for the greetings.
https://www.chrono24.com.au/rolex/da...-id5254664.htm I have decided on this unless someone thinks this is a bad choice. I also have another member looking for me and if he finds nothing I think this may be my first Rolex. Any thoughts appreciated. |

Hi Dicko, sorry you missed out on the datejust. I was like you 1 year ago and wanted a Rolex so bad. My advice would be to increase your budget and keep looking locally with a reputable dealer like VWC. Then when the right watch bobs up, just buy it. My Rolex budget initially was max $6k but really doesn't get you much IMHO. Have fun looking! I did..
