Hi everybody.
I recently joined TRF and have been avidly reading the forums for a week or two now...I must admit I didn't realise there were so many rolex enthusiasts out there.
I'm finding my long held (albeit casual) interest in quality watches is now quickly turning into a passion...I guess obsession comes next??
No Rolex for me yet but it's a goal I'm working toward...I really like the vintage models...GMT Master ll 16758 in Yellow Gold with black dial would do me nicely.
There's obviously some very knowledgable and experienced enthusiasts here that I'm very keen to learn from.
I'm really pleased to see there's plenty of other Aussies hereabouts too!
