Welcome to TRF, David. Glad you stopped lurking and came out in the open.

Stick around and join the fun here.

Tell us a bit about yourself. What watch(s) do you own or aspire to? That's a start.

Thank you all for the kind greetings!

Rough night last night, am a bit groggy, and it's not from the grog either..18 month old w/night frights.....
Collecting vintage has been my passion for about 6 years now. hd a primary focus on HEUER chronos, then got 'burned out'....switched focus to Omega/Zenith/Sinn/Movado, realized it was not quite what I was searching for, although I was having alot of fun with the chase...not to mention the money spending...LOL. Then came the diver period....short and sweet...
Consolidation time....30 plus chronos have since left, 5 Rolex have arrived, no money spent in the tradse other than shipping which as we all know does add up....
My latest, and last I believe for some time to come...

Cheers,
David
Gotta run, the 18 month old is awake....

Not a great fan of SDs, David, but that DRSD is a real eye catcher. I could make an exception for that one.
