Another one to join the ranks.

After lurking on the forums for the past few days I thought I'd finally bite the bullet and register.

The wealth of information here is almost astounding, originally I did a simple google search for rolex. After ending up here I've spent 3 days trawling the forums and I still realise how little I know.

As I'm researching for a retirement present for my father, thought I'd stop lurking and say hello.

I think I've decided on a Datejust two tone with a smooth bezel but am undecided on other options, such as dial colour.

Any advice given is happily received from the experts here.

Thank you in advance.

The silver dial has been a staple - along with the stick batons.
