Thanks! Maybe, I've actually already started thinking about my second Rolex. I've been thinking about either a Datejust (36mm), or the BLNR. Possibly even a vintage GMT 16710, but we'll see! :)

Indeed! As mentioned above: I've already started thinking about it. Let's just hope that I won't take months to make up my mind next time. ;)

I too am trying to decide which way to go...New or Pre-owned...
I went to authorized dealer in Fort Worth, the salesman ive know forever because I go there to look at the Sub/wdate, he owns many Rolex watches, bought and won. he said once I decide when he I buy it, he will have my initial's added on the back added at no charge...I really am thinking new...after reading what you said...thanks!
