Your opinions are appreciated

Welcome to TRF! As for LVC as investment - no modern Rolex is a good investment. Buy them to wear and enjoy!

Welcome.

Buy it at a sensible price and it will likely hold its value, including inflation.

If it doesn't it's still a great watch.

Welcome, it's always good to see another Aussie on here! There are a few Perth members on here, I believe they are organising a group-get-together shortly, a great way to meet some local members, see http://www.rolexforums.com/showthrea...ighlight=perth

Can't get any better advice than that.
