33yo, 14060M. Sold it a few weeks later as it felt cheap next to my Patek.

Next one, a year later, was a 116000 3-6-9 blue dial. Now that was a super watch.

54.

Was perfectly happy with my Seiko Titanium, until I was without it for service...started really looking at nice watches at my watchmakers store. The Patek Calatrava was just too "over the top".

Bought mine and the wife a ladies DJ as Christmas presents.

I bought my first Rolex today I’m 30 ... 2015 yacht master 2 the only issue I have is on the serial number it starts with a C when I look online it says Serials starting with C are 1992 and it says beside 2015 random. I got this watch checked off watch finder and they told me it’s legit
