Its beautiful. First No_U makes a topic about Rolex and now you. Maybe I should find one that I like and get put on a wait list. What would you recommend for a first Rolex? I love the color green but Im more of a basic watch kinda guy.

I just made a long post on his topic on how to handle waitlists when it comes to Rolex, check that post out, it might help you.

For a first Rolex the new Oyster Perpetuals in 41mm are fantastic, costing around 6k. It's also the model that No_U's topic was about. They are no-date watches, so you have a simple, symmetrical, uncluttered design. These are literally watches for pretty much every occasion. Robust, great proportions, weather resistant with the steel bracelet, and 100m water resistance with a screw down crown. It's the perfect Rolex in my opinion, and also the most affordable. The good thing about the Oyster Perpetual is you can actually get them with a bit of patience since they aren't under the "professional" line of Rolex models which are typically quite hard to get.
