First Rolex… Hulk…
After more than 16 years of collecting Patek, VC and AP, I bought my first Rolex… a very impulsive buy but felt is a fun watch rather than the seriouseness of the abive high end brands…
Went with a friend who wanted to buy a daytona… I saw this one with the dealer… I decided to get it… went home, and my son already decided to take it😂
will see if it will be my first Rolex in a series, or the last one😊 first impression… it is a fun watch to look at…

That’s a storied piece and you captured it beautifully on your wrist.
I guess you weren’t tempted by a Daytona like your friend…maybe next one😉.
Nice playful recreation of a holy trinity collector!
Enjoy the fun (or let your son enjoy it)!
I had a very similar Rolex journey. I had been collecting for years before buying my first Rolex. Then at a watch store party I ran across a new model that really pulled me in.
I often came home from these gatherings with a watch but never expected to come home with a Rolex. Congratulations on your purchase! ...
I love this watch.
With all the other pieces that I have this is one of my favorites. It’s a great vacation watch. I love wearing it on Sundays when my Eagles are playing (go birds)! And my son who’s seven says it’s my best watch and already wants to wear it (he has implaca...
Congratulations!
At least you did it. I am into watches for more than 20 years but never venture into the Rolex world.
