Hello TRF. Newbie Here

Greetings everyone.

I am very new to the watch world. My brother is the reason I am now about to start collecting.

Never have I liked wearing a watch when I was young (grade school). I was too young to appreciate watches.

Recently, my bestfriend, brother, and girlfriend have been persuading me to wear one. My brother had to take matters into his own hands and bought me a divers watch (not a rolex, he loves me, but not that much). I loved it! I never thought I'd feel this good wearing a watch. I wear it proudly everyday.

It has been more than a month and a half since I received the watch my brother gave me. This Sunday, hopefully, I will have my very first Rolex.

I will post pictures of it in this topic once I get it.

Thanks for reading and hoping to learn a lot more from all of you!
