New to the forum and new in!
Hi guys!
I'm pretty new to the forum and since I got my first Rolex for my 22nd birthday last week I figured why not combine a presentation thread with a incoming thread! My name is Jakob, I'm a student from Sweden, studying my forth year corporate finance. I'm also moving to NYC next year for more college, maybe might be able to meet some of you fellows in real life! This is my first Rolex and I've had the bond omega watch 2531.80 and the speedy pro with the sapphire sandwich (3573) prior to this one! I bought the Rolex from RomaOrologi in Italy and I'd recommend them, they were very professional and did answer all my questions in adequate time. Enough text, time for pictures! Familiar box! A fine 16710 y-serial late 2003 and I love it!! Fantastic watch!! Thanks for a great forum, I learn new stuff everyday! Jakob

Congratulations and I must say a very good choice. I have the exact same watch but mine is a P series. Let us know how long it takes you before you start looking for a second Rolex.
