Bless me with your knowledge

Dear Rolex veterans,

My whole life I've been an avid watch geek, it's the first thing I put on in the morning, and it's just a damn good feeling every time when I seal the watch around my wrist. Unfortunately, I don't come from wealth, so buying a watch from my dream brand was just not happening.

Until now that is! After years of working my butt off, I'm finally able to afford my first Rolex. I'm still looking around, but it's going to be a second hand one, I'm obviously open to any suggestions made by you guys(and girls). I've also bought "The Watch Book" so I can learn more about Rolex's history, as I hope to become a collector one day.

Thank you for reading

You’re on the right track by doing your research. Don’t go for just any low-hanging fruit. Be thorough in your search, find the one you really love and then wear it in good health and enjoyment for life. Best of luck!
