New Member Hello + Favorite Rolex
Hello Everyone,
I am new to this forum and wanted to greet everyone. I am a fanatical watch collector (mostly keeping a small core collection and buying and selling the fringe pieces constantly). My favorite watch right now is the Rolex GMTIIc. I am sure it has many fans on this forum. I love how all of the materials come together to make (in my opinion) the quintessential modern sports Rolex. Stainless Steel + Ceramic + Luminova + Rubber + White Gold + Parachrome + Platinum + A Bit of Green Paint = |

Welcome Wally! Love your nick LOL! Great choice of Rolex there, the GMT IIc has quite a following here on TRF.
When I was researching Rolex models trying to settle on The One, I knew in an instant that this was it! I agree with you totally on this one...

I was happy with my little collection...until I found this forum...or did it find me...
Then......it wasn't even 40 days until I had to have the IIc. This place is not helping me with my addiction.....some of these photos are killin me.
