I was 23. I bought an Oyster Perpetual for $105 in the free port of Aden in 1963. I was in the US Air Force and we lost an engine and had to divert to Aden. I still have it and it works fine. I also have a Presidential DD.

How old were you when you got your first Rolex?

Was 35 when I got my first Rolex, a 114270.

Wore a variety of mechanicals including Seiko/GS, Christopher Ward, Sinn, and Nomos before.

20. A Submariner 5512 bought 1/13/1966.
It was a gift from my folks when I enlisted in the US Navy.
It's been with me ever since.
