Hello all: MS native

[rhalljr]

Hello All! I am a recent returning Vet from Afghanistan currently living in Mississippi. An Infantry Officer by trade I am looking at moving to a larger city upon coming off Active Duty for Law School (wife want ATL, I want my hometown CHI.)

Always into watches I first started collecting at when I enlisted at 17 years old. I stopped collecting after I learned that I was buying Japan movement fashion watches and could not yet afford quality timepieces

After returning from Afghan I develop the itch again. With better money management skills and better income I thought I started buying quality Swiss Timepieces, but they were ETA movements in pretty cases.

Combing through this forum provided a multitude of knowledge which pointed me in the right direction. Although a small start my first good piece was a Datejust ref. 1603 and my Omega Seamaster Pro 2531.80...incoming tomorrow is my GMT Master II 16710!

All in all I just want to say thank you for all of the help you all unknowingly provided and I hope to get to know you gentlemen better as time elapses.
