Hi Everyone,

I have been spending some time on the forum as a guest in the last couple of weeks, especially with the rolex watch excitement for the new launch of 2020 models, and it's been very fun to read through all of the posts (particularly the one of yesterday with all the infos on the Sub &OP prior to Official posting and thanks to all that contributed in sharing all their findings ahead of the launch as it was quite exciting to read through it)

I have been living out of France since 2009 now (mainly in UAE till end of 2019) and been into mechanical watch since that same time.

I have started with my first mechanical watch from Tag Heuer (Day Date Calibre 16) and since then, I built up a small collection with the addition of :

- Rolex GMT Master II 116710LN (end of 2013)
- Panerai Tuttonero PAM0438 (mid 2016)
- Calibre de Cartier Diver Blue WSCA0010 (beg of 2017)
- Rolex AirKing 116900 (mid 2018)
- Santos de Cartier Blue WSSA0013 (beg of 2019)

I was quite excited about a potential upcoming YM40 blue but unfortunately for me, it hasn't been part of last night big announcement.

With my life and tastes evolving, I'm spending some more time on forums lately as I'm considering trading / selling some watches (maybe the cartier to start with, and perhaps also the Tuttonero) to potentially add an AP RO to the collection (15500ST, surely the Grey Dial) and/or a Rolex YM Steel.

I might not be the most active on the forum but I'll try to contribute at my own pace and thank you in advance for letting me be part of this beautiful like minded community.

Hello Adrien,

Welcome to the forum

I myself may be moving to Miami in a couple of weeks, hopefully on a temporary basis (dang Covid).

In better times,

Russell
