Old guy but first day here.

Hello everybody, thought that I would take the time to introduce myself. My name is Skip from Louisville, Ky. The wife and I are having our 50th. wedding anniversary Sept. 15. We have one daughter an 2 grand children an a lot of great memories. Now that's out of the way I am here to find some info on the watch. All my many years I have admired an wanted a Rolex. This is the first time that I have made an effort to search to buy one. My goodness what prices, I know its a Rolex. Being my first day I don't want to step on any ones toes dealers ect. But looking around flee bay seems to be a neat deal and something I can afford but I would hate to make a bad deal. There pictures and info seem super an I ck. there rep. seem OK help would be appreciated.

Welcome to TRF!

You'd need to post a link to the Ebay auction you're referring to in order for us to offer an opinion.....

Good luck on your search, and enjoy the boards!

Good luck, eBay is a minefield if you don't know what your doing. Many of us here will be happy to give opinion and advice if you need it
