What Did I Just Do?
This was the thought going through my mind as my AD was running my card after a "hypothetical" negotiation on a new Yachtmaster II. (116622) I stared at the watch, one part happy, two parts astonished, and a pinch of anxiety as I kept repeating, "all I wanted to do was come in here and inquire on an Omega I owned..."
So to introduce, I am a long time "lurker" as I do not own (well, formerly didn't) own a Rolex but an avid fan of watches and anything horology. It started in high school when I saw all the "cool kids" wearing Fossil Watches and starting the journey and research from there. I love what you all do here, between the reviews, advice, honest opinions, and general talk on anything. Hence my "full up" registration and introduction now that I have finally purchased a Rolex to add to the collection. Currently I live in Colorado and was former military for almost a decade. Looking forward to being part of, and contributing to, this awesome group of people. Early thanks for the warm welcomes and looking forward to seeing you around the forums. Jonathan P.S. Attached is the picture because "if there is no picture it didn't happen...." |

It's crazy how stressful pushing "go" on that first "costs more then you thought you should ever spend on a watch" watch!
But sooooo satisfying. Haha Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk |

Loving that new piece. That watch is really starting to grow on me. I love the accent of the light blue hand and name on the dial. Congratulations and welcome to the club.
