My new (and FIRST) Rolex!
 
Back in May, my wife came home from work and said "I want a Corvette!". We have been talking about it for years, but she was serious! By the end of the week we had bought the car of her dreams - a dark blue Vette with tan interior. Well, since she got a new toy, I had to have one too. A couple of weeks later I got my first Rolex - a Stainless Datejust with black stick dial. I ordered the watch through G.K.Scott, and I must say that they have been a pleasure to deal with, and I can now see why people own more than one Rolex. Now I'm saving my money to buy one for my wife -- we have our 25th anniversary coming up in just over a year.

Dude ! I mean, like:

Danger, Will Robinson, Danger !

Do not allow yourself to get into the toy-for-toy game ! It will only lead to your financial destruction. Take it from one who knows. Buy as many Roli's as you want. Find a place to stash them. Sh-h-h !

Congratulations on a beautiful watch. I am still waiting to get my first Rolex but I can imagine how you must be feeling! Enjoy it and wear it with a smile.

Don't you think a pic of the wife would be in order as well ? Just so's we can adequately evaluate the entire transaction dynamic ? :naughty:
