No kidding Patrick, at 21 I couldn't afford a quarter pounder with cheese! No cheese, maybe, but I'd have to really hunker down.

Congratulations to the bday boy.

I'd give up all my possessions to be 21 again, so, enjoy your youth, way more important than any watch. But you have both, so you're really living the dream there. :) It's easy to miss your life looking ahead to where you think you should be, ironically if you ever get there, you'd trade it all to go back. :)

Got my first Rolex at 42. Hey, exactly double your age. :)

Not the best pictures. But if you want good DSSD pics, theres a thread just a page or two back :) Puffy's pictures pretty much sold me the DSSD over a SubC, no lie.


Very Nice!!!! Congrats and Happy Belated Bday!

Very smart man.

I did the same thing in college and actually got the same watches. SD, PAM112 and then the DSSD. I've purchased a few more since then but getting engaged, paying for a wedding, buying a house, etc cuts into the watch funds in a big way. Worst part is when you buy a new watch and your dating a girl she thinks it's impressive...once she's your wife she thinks it's a horrible addiction and there is no need for anymore watches. Enjoy it
