Nothing crazy...just my first Rolex...DJ36

Just wanted to post my first Rolex piece. Exactly what I was looking for. Luckily, somehow, it was on display at a local AD. The SA told me they received it the day before. Glad I decided to swing by for the first time. Next piece I'm hoping to acquire is a ND Sub for my 40th bday in March. Have a great weekend everyone!

Thank you! Definitely wanted something that I'd be able to wear for a very long time and will always be a classic.

Initially I was thinking blue or Wimbledon dial. But, when I saw the silver in person I simply had to have it. Thank you

Congrats OP and welcome to what will probably be both a rewarding and frustrating hobby.
