New member with a new Rolex

Hello guys,

I come from Slovenia and I am 22 years old. I am a huge watch fan, but I never thought that Rolex will be on my wrist some day. My opinion was, that Rolex was for old people, and for those who like to show off. I did not know almost nothing about Rolex history.
But from yesterday, I am a proud owner of 116710ln GMT2
I have to say, i love it! I checked a background of this model, histroy of Rolex and everything...and it makes me proud to own such a masterpiece.

I hope I will find a lot of info here and that this is not my last Rolex

Only one picture for now, will add it more..

Welcome to the forum. Congrats on a feat first Rolex. Just a warning though, it is a slippery slope once you buy your first one and this forum can get very expensive seeing all the fine watches on here.
