Thanks for the warm welcome! Might as well tell a bit about myself, I am from York, 22 years young and have just finished a product design degree, about to start a masters. I work in retail at the moment to help finance everything. Interests include food/cooking, music/tv, technology, gyming, design and of course watches with Rolex in particular. I look forward to future posts but bear in mind I do not currently own a Rolex as I cannot afford one at the moment! I have always wanted one for as long as I can remember, so it's something I will ensure happens.

Thanks all

Welcome Adam. Maybe a used Rolex would be in your price budget. There are some nice deals you can find on this site.

I know I always have to walk past Fraser Harts on my way to work, can never resist having a nosey, and before I moved I had to walk past Berrys. All funds now anyway are going towards my masters. As much as I would love a Rolex right now, I don't think its going to happen unless I can get one for cheap which is not really possible!
And I don't touch fakes, I would rather have the real thing without question

Hello from East London.

Not sure what you want to spend but lots of decent second hand places in the uk where Rolex's are cheaper if you are looking for the first one.

Rolex should be aspirational so, get your Masters....then get a job....then celebrate all the hard work by going out and blowing some cash on something that reminds you how bloody hard you worked for it!!!! A Rolex will do nicely
