38 years old.
Retired publican who used to work 7 days a week. Now I'm a full time house husband. The wife goes to work and I do the school runs and the ironing.

Got my first Rolex 2 months ago.
Two tone blue sub. Have barely taken it off since.

I am 47 and a PhD candidate (philosophy). I currently have two Rolexes (one of which will be sold as soon as I can decide which). Both of them GMTs (due to my family still being in the UK).

I have been many things in my life, though: soldier, quarry man, diesel engineer, farm contractor, truck driver, entrepreneur, cab driver, and general contractor.

Hahah! That’s absolutely where it isn’t — but when you spend a lot of time (literally) reading philosophy, you learn that life is not all about the money

56, retired, former seller of timepiece.

I have a collection of vintage and newish sport models (Cosmographs, Explorer II’s, GMT’s). Most recent acquisition is a Polar 226570 but I collect other brands as well.

I have a mildly absurd affinity for Cartier timepieces as well as Tiffany & Co. cobranded timepieces.
