First Rolex! 114300

Just wanted to share my joy with being part of the Rolex world now. I recently sold my IWC Portuguese and was trying to decide between the 114300 and an Omega DSoTM...happy with my choice!

I think you made a wise choice between the dark side and this... Grey side would have been a different story.

Great watch; the OPs are some of my favorites; the 39mm certainly has made people stand up and take notice.
