Your college degree and your Rolex.
This is inspired by the your Rolex and your profession thread.
Now I'm from England where we call it university and you only do one subject but I understand the Americans amongst you minor and major in things etc. Personally I'm in my first semester at college and also trying to run a business. My degree is in accounting. I will be getting a Subc or Explorer II as soon as I save my last £500 or so. I currently have a Breitling and a JLC Reverso. So did you go to college ? If so what is your degree subject ? and obviously which Rolex/Rolex's do you own ? |
