New to the board

Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I've finally got my hands on my very first Rolex. After coveting this watch for about 10 years I've finally got it and I'm delighted. After spending hours online (most on this forum) and taking onboard the advice from many of you i finally found the one. Strangely enough it appeared at the end of my street where I work in an amazing vintage clock shop. After heeding the advice to buy the seller and that seller had been a friend to my family for a long time it seemed fate had played its hand. So I finally have my 14060m . It's a 2004 with box and papers and is fantastic condition. My friends think I'm mad to have spent what I did but I'm hoping that this will only increase in value over time (not that I have any intention of selling it anyway) . Anyway thanks to everyone on the forum that imparted so much knowledge and wisdom I actually couldn't have done this without you !

Congrats! Excellent watch. I have had mine since 2002 and this watch is why I have not chosen to pursue additional watches, including another Rolex.
