after 25 years, finally bought my first Rolex!
been wanting one for 25 years, and i finally spent a few months looking and researching. After nearly buying a "batman/bruiser" brand new at a dealer about 90 miles away, i decided to go back to the one i originally wanted. A Datejust 2 with blue sticks dial. I love it!! after reading all the seller reviews, i bought it from Chase "AU_911TT" in Nashville.
