First Rolex ever!!!

Hello all,

I'm a newbie from Texas who after wanting a Rolex for almost 35 years (I'm 50), just ordered his first ever - a pre-owned men's TT Datejust 16233 with blue dial and jubilee bracelet.

Twice previously I had come extremely close to buying my dream watch but held off, rationalizing there were many ways to more responsibly spend my money. Then last week my fiance said, "Look, why go to the grave wishing you'd always had one - just get it." Basically she tipped the scale and I made the plunge.

The watch is a 1997 model, looks to be in excellent condition with better than average bracelet stretch, 100% auth. and has all links, original box and papers. The watch should be in my hands this Wednesday. Once I've got it and head to my jeweler to authenticate, I'll post a pic and tell you all more about my purchase experience.

Color me excited!
