New guy here

Hi!

First time poster-what a great forum! Am very glad I found it-so much valuable info here!-before settling on my brand spanking(w/random serial number)new Rolex.

It did take some time to decide, this being my first Rolex, and I finally narrowed it down to the Submariner and the GMT Master II-with the TOG SS & WG(see, I already picked up a bit of the lingo!) coming in a close third. The GMT won(below).

One of the important pieces of info I found here(or at least a link to it)is how to adjust the Easylink(wondered why Rolex didn’t include the directions in the informational booklet?)but the Easylink is such a great concept, esp. for those who live in climes that range from hot & humid in the summer to cold in the winter and need to adjust their bracelets accordingly.

Anyway, it’s a spectacular watch and am very happy with it.
