Yinz from Pittsburgh?

Pardon the potential missuse of the colloquialism as I myself am not a native but do live in the area. I'm new to the ROLEX game and would love to learn from someone who's a little more experienced over a few drinks. Let me know if you've got any interest!

I'll keep a lookout. Would love to join in for the next one. I tried to make one a while back but got caught up in meetings all day. I think some people stopped at my Sport Clips for a trim though!

I have 3 friends from Pittsburgh that are planted over here now, but one of my best friends just moved out that way for work. I might have to take a road trip!

That was a couple years ago, I'm second from the right with theloxmyth far right.

I'm in for a GTG if the weather is good ... well, clear roads!

If anyone ever wants to get together and talk watches, I'm always game.

I live in the shaler / north hills area.

All the Rolex watches that I've purchased new have been from Louis Anthonys. Lou and his son Lou Jr. Are great guys.

Henne's is fun to view "stuff" at and I've bought from Orr's.
(I USUALLY buy from a trusted seller, here, though,)

I've perused L. Anthonys' "stuff" and like the place.
(Henne's Chad (The Watch Guy) moved on to L. Anthonys, if I'm not mistaken.)

New(ish) member here from Punxsutawney just wanting to say hello! I'm typically in Pittsburgh on the weekends as I keep an apartment down there. A meet up would be awesome! I'll settle for these forums for now!
