Hello from Singapore
Hi all,

I had joined a while back but have not really posted much. There is so much helpful information on here and so much to know about the Rolex brand and watches, I find myself immersed in the reading. Also, it seems such an ever friendly and close community here, which is excellent to see.

I currently have an Oyster quartz steel, which is a hand me down from my father and which I had been using for quite some time, and I recently (this May) bought a GMTII c two tone for myself (which I now use regularly). I had initially thought of getting the all steel submariner but ended up liking the bezel on the GMT ceramic more and then got to like the look of the gold on steel a lot.

Anyway here are some photos of my GMT.

Thanks all, I hope I can be as helpful to the community as much as you all have been to us newbies. I must say I am really getting this Rolex bug because I'm often here checking out all the pics and learning more about the various models. I can't see myself getting another piece though because the one I have is the only one I want to wear and I find myself staring at and admiring it very often. Maybe first step to addiction?
