Finally! Wifey let me buy a rolex!
Hello guys, just wanted to say I'm so happy i bought a rolex today! Been wanting one for like the past 5 years, wife bought a omega constellation few years ago for me but it didn't quite satisfy that yearning inside lol. Finally she broke down and let me buy a rolex. It's a thing of beauty! Going to start a tradition since we just had a son. He'll get it at 21 and hopefully by then I can afford a presidential. Thanks for reading my story and sharing in my happiness :)

Congratulations. One observation, I think you got the bigger box for Gold models. I might be mistaken but it seems bigger than the box I got for my SS pieces.

Congrats and welcome to TRF. This is only the beginning for you and your Rolex watch collection. I give it 6 months and you will be making another Rolex purchase. Enjoy your watch and wear in good health.
