Price
When you are about
to enter the world of Rolex, of luxury watches, price is often the factor you
have to consider. You do not want to buy the cheapest Rolex model available and
show your friends that you have a Rolex. For the first one, 50k-60k would be
quite appropriate. The general public’s perception on a price of a Rolex is
around that range.
2.
Model
Almost every Rolex
model is iconic. However, you have to understand very well whether you want sports
models or classic models. Again, the factor of price plays a role here. At
50k-60k, you can have the two popular sports models, the Submariner and the GMT
Master II. These are two models that are easily recognized by people on the
street and guarantee you very good attention.
Other than the
model reference, you might want to pay attention to aesthetics. For example,
again using the GMT Master II and the Submariner as examples, one may find the
Submariner more classic while the GMT Master II more flashy. So, be sure to go
to an AD to try before you make your final verdict.

Function
Be practical on function when choosing your
first Rolex. You can surely go for the Daytona as your first Rolex. However,
does it really give you what you need?
A Chronograph, Really?
One of the basic
functions you need may include the date, instead of a chronograph. (If you want
to time how long you have to wait for the green light then the chronograph goes
first). So, it is recommended to choose a watch with a date window. For a more
classic choice, the Datejust II is good with a fluted white gold bezel. You may
also choose the Explorer II as it also has a GMT hand, with prices lower than
the GMT Master II.
