Just Another Newbie!

Greetings! I am Patty and I live in Las Vegas. I am a poor person who has good taste. I got my first Rolex in 1987 when I was paid 25K plus tax gross up for an idea I submitted to the company I worked for! It was my first watch. I always said I didn't want one till I could afford a Rolex. Hard times hit and I had to sell my watch in 2014 and I actually made a profit on it! It's really hard to do that with any kind of jewelry type item. I missed having a watch so I saved up for another one. It's used or I guess you would say pre-owned and I have some questions. I was googling around and found this forum so I joined!

Welcome. Sorry to hear you lost your first, but you're definitely in the right place to replace it!
