Hi- from a noob

Hi there. Thought I would introduce myself to you as a first time poster, long-time lurker.

Im from London and have been building up a small but nice collection of watches inc a GMT II Master and an Oyster Perpetual. I also have a lovely Panerai which is currently being serviced. Im in the UK, but tend to visit the USA on vacation once of twice a year (10 years running now!!).
We're fans of Florida and the Orlando parks but especially South Florida - at Bonita Springs where we have made some great freinds.

This is without doubt the best wtach forum I have seen - the UK equivalent (not Rolex specific) is a horrible cliquey place where new members are made to feel real unwelcome.

So Hi again - hope to be posting and chatting soon

Alex

Welcome Alex. Glad to see you recovered from the operation so quickly. Best of luck with your GMTc sale here - especially as it's listed the first day you join. Maybe better luck than on TZ UK
