My first Rolex
I've been on the lookout for the right Datejust for a while.
When I saw this one, I had to have it. Unfortunately it's been wrapped ready for Christmas. Stainless Datejust with a jubilee bracelet, white gold bezel and a silver Diamond dot dial. |

Many thanks guys and gals, I can't wait to get my hands on my new watch come Christmas Day.
I've checked out the Serial number and it's got a T serial. If the table I was looking at is correct that puts it at 1996. The same age as my middle son and a year younger than my trusty Omega SMP. |

You can always unwrap it and wear it while she's asleep.
