Hi all! Newbie deciding on first rolex!

Hi guys, just joined today. I'll be making my first Rolex purchase soon! Still trying to decide between the sub c or the gmt II c. AD's here are all charging a premium for the sub c which is kinda pushing me towards the gmt.

I'm from Malaysia and the sub c's are just selling too fast!

Anyone else here from Malaysia or know of any 2nd hand Rolex dealers to recommend in Malaysia? Thought of getting my first piece new and working the pre-loved market to grow my collection. :)

Welcome to TRF. You may wish to check with some of the trusted sellers here. I suspect that you could purchase a new or slightly used sub c at a very nice price. Best of luck and enjoy your time here.

Either watch is a great choice for a first Rolex.
