New to the forum.

Hi Guys,

I just thought i would make a thread to say hello and introduce myself to the forms, and also just to check this account is working!

Im based in Sydney and have been a Rolex admirer for quite sometime. I am the proud owner for 2 Rolexes, A day-date (presidential) and an Air-king which i have had for quite some time. A recent interest in discovering more about the watches has lead me here! I am definitely interested in knowing more about the origin / manufacture period etc of the watches and in my search led me to these forums which seemed to answer a lot of my questions.

Anyway, hi everybody!

Welcome, mate! Sydney sounds like a cool place to live. Next time you are thinking of buying another Rolex, ask our opinions and we will try really hard to talk you out of it

Also, i've always been a oyster / perpetual, day-date / datejust kind of guy. Can anyone point me in the right direction in my "quest" to know as much as i can with these models? I find the submariners and co are well documented as a whole, but finding info for me on the oyster / perpetual, day-date / datejust types slightly tougher...
