Bought my 1st Rolex
This is my first post. I just purchased my first Rolex last week in California from a Rolex AD. Rolex Submariner Mens Steel Non Date 114060 for $6900 OTD it was shipped to VA for no tax. Happy to get a 5yr warranty with my new Rolex. I immediately swapped metal band for a Da luca NATO band with help from a thread on this forum.

Welcome and congrats on your first. The 114060 is a great piece.
Do you have any wrist shots of it on the nato?
