You meant, you've touched one, then gave it back to the AD! I've also touched several and gave them back to the DAs! !

It's very cool that this forum has such a great mixture of people of all ages and backgrounds :)

I'm 34, work in advertising. I have a 79' DJ that belonged to my dear grandad and am hoping to pick up another soon (currently lusting after a 14060M non COSC). I also have a nice little 60's Omega Seamaster De Ville.

I work for HM Secret Service and have recently given up my Omega for a Sub Date LV. I'd tell you more, but then I'd have to ....well, you know.



Best,

SS GMT IIc. My first Rolex which I bought just a couple of weeks ago.
Nearly got myself a TT Submariner, but it when I tried it on it was just a bit too 'bling' and I was convinced people would think it was a fake as in reality nobody in my job should be able to wear a Rolex. The GMT is great as it's more discrete but still oozes class.

I'm an Art Director (Advertising, mostly Web), 30 years old, and I've got a GMTII (16710) and a GMTIIC (116710). Probably gonna sell the original GMT soon though - I love the IIc too much to ever take it off.

Nice. I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one in Advertising. Which firm? I used to live in Chicago, moved from there to Amsterdam last year.
