Rolex

10 Years Ago Today

 

I realized a 20+ year goal to own a Rolex. Since then I’ve joined and loved sharing in this forum and modestly added to my collection. Thanks to you all for sharing your comments and posts of some incredible watches!

You cannot go wrong with such a Classic. I regret mine, sometime...

116200: ...  

Very cool piece! Was that your 1st?

Nah, my first was a Rolex GMT MASTER 16700, which I equally stupidly let go.

I had this exact same datejust with the tuxedo dial and i do regret selling it about 5 years ago!

Yes, I did't wear it very often, though...

Mine was running really slow and got lazy and sold it instead of waiting for a full service!

I think I will put mine on for today. Cheers, Cazalea from June 2005 ...  

Stunning dial and I love those Art Deco style numerals

Thanks for sharing your joy in your first Rolex — 10 years young!

Again, thanks to everyone on this site for your comments and sharing this “obsession” with me

Very nice and the red date wheel is the cherry on top! 👍

It has a red/odd, black/even date wheel. Other date complications I have are black only. Not sure how common the two color style is.
