First Rolex

Hello everybody,


Big indecision is over...

After years of dreaming about the Submariner, and knowing the new one will be out in 2010, just waited almost a year to have the chance to compare both.

I know, masochism....because I ended buying the GMT..


But only know the stars aligne...and worth waiting...althoug not sure in the choice...who knows I get the next Sub in 2020 or whatever...


So here is the picture..not a very good one...


Big thank to this forum, that help me to understand more about Rolex world.


Cheers

Gratz on the first rolex but dont worry this forum will give you a strange desire to get more rolexes so you might end up getting the sub faster than you might think :)
