New Member -- Graduation Gift Help Appreciated

[ajscalingi]

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum--and inexperienced when it comes to all-things Rolex--so any help would be greatly appreciated!

I just finished up law school, and as a reward, I plan to purchase my first Rolex. That said, I have three in mind, and if anyone has any insight/recommendations/etc., I'd be grateful. Below are the three I'm considering:

1. Datejust: Stainless Steel Silver Stick Dial & Engine Turn Bezel, Model No.16220. I can purchase it (preowned) from swiss - wrist dot com for $2,700 (no box/papers);

2. Datejust Thunderbird (white gold), Model No. R1626440 B6251. I can purchase it from a local, reputable jeweler (preowned) for $3,000 (with box/papers); or

3. Two Tone Datejust - Slate Arabic Dial with Fluted Bezel, Model No. 16013-7134. I can purchase it (preowned) from swiss - wrist dot com for $2,700 (no box/papers);

My apologies in advance for the long-winded post, but I really want to make sure I don't make an expensive mistake. Thank you so much!
