Newbie here with Rolex

[kelv_w]

New here to forum and my first post.Thought I'd share with my fellow enthusiast. Got bitten by the bug when I bought my first Rolex EXII for my 40th last year and 4 months later I picked up a BLNR which I have been eyeing every since.

I remember my parents asked what watch I wanted 25 years ago and I chose a Tag (it was all raved back then) and my sis picked her Rolex. How have I regretted it but I still wear my Tag until today. It still brings fond memories.
Anyway... here are some obligatory photos

Although I didn't get any gifts, the AD was nice enough to offer a bottle of bubbly instead.
 


My new acquisition last week  This time I was given a service pouch and a Cartier watch cleaning kit. Ah well, better than nothing.



So far so good but I hope to add another in future, maybe a Hulk, Datejust41 or AirKing? Not sure which one yet

Congrats on two fantastic watches. Maybe a datejust with a fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet, at 36mm a great dress watch. Seeing that you already have two sports watches. And welcome to the forum...

Cheers

Great pieces you have there. I remember starting off with a DJ vintage, which started the Rollie-bug. Then SubLN, DJ diamonds, SubLV, Eii, SDc... but I am a serial flipper so I tend to flip them one after another, over time, all pun intended 

I have always been interested in the BLNR, but the middle polished links seemed to be scratch-magnet. How have yours been holding up? Am now eyeing the Sky-Dweller sans precious metals, which you could consider too as prices are more attainable now that Rollie make them in WG and s/s. Your 2 Rollie brothers-in-arms looked real good, mate!

add another Sub then complete the Rolex Sports Trinity

then add Daytona then add Day Date then add SkyDweller

[Timeless]

Perhaps Submariner with date, non date or Sea Dweller.

Only have the Tag, no Cartier. The Tag on the left was a gift from my wife and the right is my old Tag. The series 2000 was all rave back then lol.

A sub is tempting but I quite like the green sub too.

What is it mean by flat 4 bezel?

[ck77]

What is it mean by flat 4 bezel?

The top of 4 is flat, instead of pointed.

Congratulations bro! Both Batman and Explorer are my personal favourite, and both of them are of really good value.

add another Sub then complete the Rolex Sports Trinity

then add Daytona then add Day Date then add SkyDweller

Green Sub is good. I just don't know why, sometime design of Tag dated faster... but not all...

Heuer are timelss especially old Carrera

[Ray55]

You are right mate! no matter what watch you own and keep it till today is will give you lots of memory.  I don't even have a watch till age of 23!
