New from MD - and what should I get?

For my first Rolex I'm not sure what to get......I like to think I know a little bit about watches but the Rolex brand has only recently began to appeal to me. I would love to snag a perfect Pepsi gmt but that may not fit the budget for a while. Should I get an air king to get my beak wet or just wait it out?

Welcome - I'm more of a fan of the GMT - but you should get what works for you.

Welcome to TRF
I'd pass on the A-K if it were me.
An Explorer I or Sub might be better.
Try looking at the trusted sellers here on TRF.
