Hello from Starbucks, Nope Seattle

Hello,

My name is Marc and I finally pulled the trigger on a GMT2c. I didn't want to get caught in another price hike.

Hey Marc way to go pal

However, maybe you didn't count on how addictive Rolex watches can be, so that saving you made on the GMT might just translate to a whole lot more spending on other Rolex

Anyway, good going and enjoy

Welcome, Marc.

As Jason says, the GMT IIc is one of the best looking watches out there.

CONGRATULATIONS

Welcome, but remember that potatoe chip ad from Lays. You can't just have just one! Same with Rollies. Enjoy your stay here.

Great choice of a watch Marc. Welcome to TRF. Post some pictures. Look forward to seeing your collection grow.

The price increase will force many to buy used. It's all good .
