Hello! Just joined
hello all, just joined this forum after many years reading articles. I've been keen on Rolex since a teenager and started off buying a secondhand Rolex Oyster Precision from a dealer in Bond Street, In those days they sold old, vintage Rolex by the tray load - you don't see that anymore at these dealers as i presume they're all now sold on the internet. The Precision is a manual wind but it still kept resonable time. I bought it when I was just 19 years old after saving up - cost me £500 back in 1990. My daily watch now is the GMT IIC which I currentlywear with a Nato strap from Corvus. I have bought my wife 2 Rolex Oyster Date Date and Datejust when I have seen bargains over the years. My future purchase when funds allow is a Submariner. See you all on the forum Jason, Surrey, UK
