Icon20 Ed from SC, my first remarks.

8yr USMC combat veteran, spent 4 years as an EMT/Firefighter and 2 years as a Police Officer. Now venturing off into the world of wine, I've done a lot in my 31 years on earth, my next quest is to own a Rolex.

I currently own two Tag Heuer timepieces, and am a noob to this addiction.

I enjoy good wine/bourbon/scotch and cigars. On a good day you will find me with a Padron in one hand and Lagavulin in the other.

I also have an extremely large sports memobelia collection. Majority game used/worn from the NHL (jerseys,helmets,sticks,pucks and much more).



I look forward to staying active and learning from everyone here.

Cheers! -Ed

India Co. 3/7 here! USMC 1985-1993 Gulf War vet. Welcome! I bought a 1991 GMT Pepsi as my commemorative timepiece from the Gulf War.

Maybe something from a deployment year would work for you as well.

Getting your first Rolex won't be much of a challenge compared to what

Thank you! GMT Pepsi is my #1 target for my first Rolex! I like the Idea of commemorating time of service with a timepiece from a specific year. Semper Fi!
