Hey Fellas (and ladies):
Long time lurker. Acquired my first Rolex during this last holiday season. A little about me: I just turned 35. I went into the Navy after high school, then undergrad and subsequently law school. I took the bar again last week so hopefully I passed. Naughty bar. Naughty graders actually but its ok. Currently applying to jobs again. Law firms mostly, but I am looking at Mergers and Acquisitions companies too because I really liked that stuff in law school and frankly find practicing law to be [fill in not so nice adjective]. Long term goal will be to run for public office. I was campaigning a little before I found out I failed the bar actually, then dropped out to study again. About my little buddy: It was gift to myself. I saved enough money over the years and pulled the trigger eventually. The beauty of the original Submariner is something I have a hard time looking past. It is nice to look at and I appreciate the no date's history. However, the lack of date does get frustrating sometimes. For now I am keeping it. I wear it everyday. I look at it at least twice a minute hah. The only times its not on my wrist are when I am in the gym or sleeping. Cheers Everyone Update: I tried attaching this photo I took but it's too big (that's what... nope). So, let me figure this resizing thing out and I will update this post. |

Welcome to the Fray, good Sir! You can post photos after(I think) 10 posts. Thank you for your service! My Gpa was a cook in the Navy.

Thanks for introducing yourself and joining. Shared watch lover opinions and thoughts are important, but the Rolex addiction this site might create is a dangerous thing, pocket-wise!
