Hello from Phoenix AZ

Been a watch admirer for most of my adult life, a huge James Bond fan all of my life.. you see where this is going!
I've got a few "watches" but nothing I would consider owning forever or seeing as an investment.
I've made the choice to treat myself finally once my truck title shows up.
This was after checking and seeing that the payoff would be the equivalent of a new Submariner no-date in SS. I think it'll be the right first choice since it'll be mostly trouble/maintenance free for some time and as I want to wear it nothing I will have too many complications doing so.
Wow, I'm kicking myself for not going w. a vintage Sub years ago when I was searching seriously. They're literally twice what I seen ~7-10yrs ago!
A guy I talked to the other day explained it well, "no one needs a watch since we all have iphones, but a high end timepiece will always been longed for"

Shortlist interests:
Sub no-date
Speedy
Carrera chrono
..and I've always liked the old Army style Oris big crown/ Tudor ranger/ IWC pilot designs.

I was gifted a CAG7011 but have no real interest in it. Wondering if some of the many reputable resellers on here would work a deal with me on it? Love the buyer/seller feedback section.

Well, I'm sure I'll report back when I finally pull that trigger..
Great forum and thanks for having me!
