First Rolex

I had to wait a month after making a purchase of a different watch (Grand Seiko Snowflake) but it feels well worth it. No need for strap adjustment it fit perfectly as soon as I put it on. I am a happy man! :)

Wow this looks so much better on the oyster than jubilee! First time I’ve looked at this dial and thought it looked great

Great piece and congrats on your 1st! Like the snowflake as well and wonder how it would look on a jubilee-style bracelet. Not a big fan of the GS bracelets.

Big fan of this!! Waiting for my AD to call me for something similar.

Just to confirm, you waiting a month for this watch? Although you did have some spending history because you bought the Grand Seiko Snowflake?

This is the ideal setup, fluted dial and bezel, sportiness of Oyster. Absolutely love this and think it could easily be a daily wear. Huge congrats!

Hello, yes I originally went into the Rolex part of Goldsmiths on the 22/02/2022 and was told 6-24 months and that I would need a purchase history, so put it out of my mind and bought the GS. I then wrote a review on Trustpilot comparing the different sections and it didn't reflect too well on the Rolex Dept, I received a response and two days later was contacted offering me the one I had signed up for. I think the wording of the review helped a lot :)
