Hello all! I have been a lurker for several years and this being my first post, I hope to be a beneficial contributor of this site. I do not have my Rolex just yet, I am about 2/3 saved up for my first Rolex. I am going to either go with a Submariner Reference 114060, or a DJii two tone with the arabic numerals, reference 116333.

Thank you all for posting all the photos and helpful information. I look forward to being apart of the Rolex team!

The best part of getting a new watch is the research, saving money, looking, and eventually finding your new watch.
Enjoy the hunt!

I went and made another payment at my AD, I am going with Submariner Date version. They only had one in their inventory, and it was the one that was in the display case. I asked them when the next batch arrives, if they would put one aside for me. I asked if they could not take any of the packaging off of the watch, as I would like to be the first one to touch it and remove all the protective plastics :) They said that would not be a problem.

As soon as they get one in, I am going to pick it up!

Im super excited!

I finally got it everyone! My AD let me open it from the rolex coffin. They had a new one in the store. I asked if I could wait for a brand new one that was never touched. They said that was fine and let me be the first one to open it and take all the stickers off. I had to wait about a month for my watch to come in.

BEST DAY EVER!
