Hello from NC

Although Ive been reading the forum for many years, I thought Id start joining the conversations. Ive been fascinated by watches for as long as I can remember, grandfather was trained as a watchmaker.

I have a small collection including a Hamilton Khaki field mechanical, Tag Heuer Aquaracer auto, Chris Ward C60 GMT, and a Marathon GSAR. Time to let some of them go. Im finally in a position to pull the trigger and am looking forward to adding Rolex to my collection. Im on the hunt for a 116610LV. After that I'll be looking for a birth year 1984 two tone datejust.

Welcome to the forum! The Hulk is excellent and it gets some wrist time with my wife as well.
