My first was a no date Sub that I purchased pre-owned. Got it from a dealer while vacationing in the Carribean three years ago. I still have the watch and wear it occasionally in my rotation. Since than, thanks to the bad habits I've learned on this forum, my collection has increased 10 fold, with no end in sight .

Got a love it.

My first was a SS DJ. I had won some money in a casino in Biloxi and was returning to the tables after dinner. However to get there I had to walk by an AD so I decided to pop in to see what they had. So instead of returning to the gaming tables, I returned to my hotel room to spend the evening oogling my new watch....

I still have it... :)

An LV six years ago, I waited twelve months for it to arrive to then swapped it for a Plat Yachtmaster. Love the Yachtmaster but do I regret letting the LV go?.....YES

My first will be a 36mm DJ - Oyster Bracelet and Concentric Dial. I'm in the process of transferring funds so I can make one lump wire to David!

I can't tell you how excited I am! In terms of sentimentality - I'm 23, it's a pat on the back to myself for working hard and buckling down and it will also be on m wrist when I marry the love of my life next may!
