Need tips buying my first Royal Oak
HeyI am buying myself a RO. I just want some input from people with experience.Currently I only have one offer, to trade my 116610 (fullset, 2012) with a guy and pay about $4700 to get a 15202 (no box, no paper) from 2004 but in very good condition. Service history unknown, so it might be in need of a full service.Is that a good deal? I was going for a 15300 at first but this is what I got at the moment. I don't know what I miss if I get the 15202.If this isn't a good deal, what is? Please help me and if you have tips where to look (some shop, dealer or anything) in Europe it would be great to know!Grateful for the help I can get!

Does anyone still own a flat blue (smurf) bluesey 116613?
I had one a while back before getting a new sunburst one. It seems like the flat blue bluesy was almost like a bad dream for Rolex and they corrected it in 2013. I know it doesn't get much mention or love on here (separate from The Smurf 116619), but just curious if anyone still owns/wears one?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It is surprising as its in a very ritzy area flooded with cops, but I guess it doesn't matter where you are there is no safe zone anymore.I was greeted immediatley as soon as I stepped in the door. Very welcoming to say the least. I was greeted by a beautiful young lady named Emily. She was very welcoming and immediately asked Are shopping for yourself or for someone else?. I told her for myself. She asked What are you looking for, anything in particular?. I told her ROLES!!!! of course. She immediately made her way over to the case as it couldn't have been anymore clearer than the ROLEX advertising on the glass cases and on front of the cases.She asked Could I get you and your Daughter a Bottle of water while you browse?.What I saw I couldn't believe.
