26 years old. Worked in Human Resource for 2 years and now pursuing a Nursing Degree. Currently working in a clinic to kind of pay the bills and just quit my other job at Swatch when I saved up enough to buy a SubC 114060 as a milestone gift to myself because I got married this year. Dad might buy me a Rolex next year when I hold my wedding reception. Debating between the Explorer, Explorer II.

I'm 32 years old and self employed. I am a reseller of hard to acquire items (I know everyone hates that guy.) I mostly sell limited shoes (IE Yeezy's, Air Jordans, etc etc) but anything I can flip for a profit is my line of work.

In addition to being a villain to most I am a free lance animator, illustrator, photographer, game designer, custom computer builder... I guess it's just easier to say I'm a legal hustler lol.

The only Rolex I own so far is the 114060 which I am looking to flip for something more fitting which would either be the BLNR , Black dial turn-o-graph, or maybe the SD4k.

Nice!! I'm an avid pool player and I love custom cues! Some nice looking work there!



As for me, I have a Tudor BBB right now and looking to get a Rolex soon. I do content management for a large bicycle company.

When I was young I played pool for money. I very much appreciate your craftsmanship and custom cues in general. But I always used whatever sticks the parlor or bar had, so I would not come across as hustler, which I basically was. Nine ball was my game.

Good luck!

Thank you for those kind words. I have changed my focus from saving for an Explorer Ii to the new Air King. Some don't like it but I think it's a beauty.
