Wow! this thread has been running for 9 years!!!

These are the first 3 posts from back in June 2008

Would be intersting to catch up with the some of the early contributers to see how their collections have evolved over the years and if they even still contribute on TRF...

I'm a 30yr old IT Business & Systems Analyst (and always seeking new opportunities, for those in the field!)

I own a Datejust 41 and a vintage Oyster Perpetual 3372 bubbleback. Future purchases may include additional vintage pieces (would love a 50's DJ,) and/or a Yachtmaster 40. Love Daytonas too. :)

Radio Presenter.

I own a Zenith Daytona, but am hankering after an Explorer 11 to add to it, gawd knows why though!

I'd add a pic, but each time I try it says it's too large to post.

Just noticed some people have mentioned other non Rolex watches that they own, in which case, I also have an Omega Seamaster 300.

1984 DJ, I represent a company that performs cost segregation studies for commercial building owners - reduces income taxes $70K per $1M in cost basis by accelerating depreciation. That will buy a few Rolexes.

27 year old lawyer here.

I own a 116610LN, which I bought this May. Use it as a true tool watch - I have taken it with me on dives and I lift weights/run with it on.



Rolex-wise, I've previously owned a 116713.
