New member, just wanted to introduce myself.

Hi everyone,

My name is Russ. I am new to this forum, but in no way new to watches. I am a regular on other forums, but just discovered this forum. My collection consists of mostly Omegas at the moment, hopefully you won't hold that against me...
I am going to my AD tomorrow to put a deposit on a brand new Submariner No-Date. So I figured I'd join the forum a day early

Russ

Welcome aboard Russ!!
You´ll surely enjoy this place, and find many owners of Omegas here too.
You surely made a good decision buying a Sub no date (14060m I guess)
I just bought one last week. Great watch... a classic. You´ll love it!

Here is mine, so you can imagine it in your own wrist.

Best cordial regards, and enjoy your new Rolex and visiting this place. (post pictures when you get it!)
Regards, Abel

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I cant wait to get my Sub. I will definitely post pics when I get it. I finally went and tried one on this past weekend. It was love at first sight. I always knew I wanted one, just from pics and seeing it on other people. As soon as I tried it on I had to have it! Thanks again for the welcome!

Hi Russ,

Welcome. Won't hold the fact that you own Omegas against you, but the fact that you're from Philly, I do hold against you.
