1st Real Rolex
I say "first real Rolex" because in April I bought a '78 Tudor with a fake Rolex dial on ebay. Since I was a newby I had no idea and paid probably toooo much for it. Then I bought an Omega, but wasn't totally WoWed with it. Finally, I bought a brand new datejust 116201 black concentric dial serial M (rose gold & ss) from a watch dealer I found over the internet. Since I live in Peru I had it shipped to a friend in the US, and since I was in the US for a wedding last weekend I picked up these beauty. Best purchase I have ever made
