Hi all!

Hi, I'm Wes. how's everyone doing? :)

I purchased my first Rolex on Saturday; a 2010 SS GMT-II, which was, at one point, my grail piece. I sent my Panerai 112 off for maintenance early Saturday morning, and bought the GMT-II out of impulse. I have to say this is the best impulse buy I have done thus far. The only other "luxury piece"(if you can call it that), is a Tag Heuer Monaco, which my girlfriend has taken over.

I look forward to my future on this forum.

Thanks, again.

One question:

How do you edit your posts? Do you have to have 4 posts to edit posts?

Thanks! It definitely is. I'm about to buy a NATO to rock during work. I don't want to scratch the bracelet up too much. From what I've heard, it scratches easily.
