I'm here to stay
Hello everyone,
I've been reading this fantastic forum for a while now and later created a username and finally started to contribute. I've never introduced myself since I didn't think I'd be sticking around for this long. So, anyhow, hello and thank you all for contributing to a great community.

As for myself, I've been a long time watch lover. I started with a vintage Speedy Pro then got burned on a Submariner transaction that put a bad taste in my mouth for a long time. Then, I was gifted my father's vintage YG Date. This got me excited about acquiring another watch so I bit the bullet and purchased a very nice preowned Explorer II polar 40mm that I absolutely love. I wear it everyday now. My next purchase may be a no date submariner. The bug has been caught and this forum is just fueling it. Thank you folks!

No date sub would complement your polar ex II nicely! Welcome
