Hello from Pittsburgh

Hey there

29 y/o paramedic from Pittsburgh, PA.

Been working in EMS for ten years and looking to earn either my RN/NP or PA-C in the next few years. Happy relationship with a wonderful woman. Moving soon to a more suburban area.

I have always been a Rolex lover, notably the Sub and Explorer. Only recently got my hands on both to try them out. Loved them both but will be awhile till I can afford a new or even lightly used SubC.

Currently wear a Tissot Perpetual Calendar my better half got me for our first Christmas together. Nice watch but want to move up. Looking at a Tudor BB Blue. I actually find myself lusting after the Tudors as much as their big brother, Rolex.

Have tried numerous other watches. Owned a Hamilton and Longines. Both decent watches especially the Longines. Considered an Omega but a small medical emergency set me back and couldn't swipe the one I wanted. C'est la vie.

Anyway, look forward to chatting with you all.

DXU
