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.

Interesting topic. Got into collecting watches a few years ago and got addicted very quickly! I work in Merchant Acquisitions for AMEX. Essentially I sign large companies to accept the Amex card! Love my job and the company:) I currently have a Plat YachtMaster, Omega Planet Ocean (orange band and bezel), Omega Seamaster Bond, Panerai 090 (luminor power reserve), TAG formula 1, and my newest purchase (just a few hours ago) a SS Daytona w/ white face.

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.

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 a 35 y/o dentite, in Michigan, and just bought a SS white dial Daytona. I totally splurged my ass off, and feel a tad guilty. $11k for a watch is a tad expensive, and never thought I would do that.
