Hi from Pittsburgh

I'm about to pick up my first rolex, I've collected for years but rolex never "did it" for me till now..not sure what happened but suddenly I'm into either a 14060m or perhaps a vintage gmt or perhaps a SD, not sure. All I know now is that it will be on a nato.

Hey, fellow Blitzburgher!

Nice to see The Burgh represented; there are a lot of folks here with Pgh. roots, also!

Thanks for the nice welcome.....I do like the vintage and some good deals out there now,,,,but I like the balance bridge in the 3135 that has pulled me in. I actually let a Doxa 1000,,,,a Kobold Ti Seal,,,and an invicta go to buy this, ok the invicta didn't hurt too bad.


hey locksmith,,,,I swear I think I've seen your van/truck driving around....I think it had something about time keeping on it which caught my attention.

Don't give away the farm, but what general area are you in? I service from Latrobe to Robinson Township.

Maybe it was the "Cigar Camp" bumper sticker, because "its about time" for a goood cigar! : )


24 HR Emergency Service? (That's a lie. I have to sleep sometime! )

Thanks for the nice welcome.......

I don't know loxmyth,,,,could be a false memory but I swear I saw that thing crusing up in cranberry...

looks like the 14060m will be my first choice...plus I ended up with that "authentic" bond nato....so should be nice.

My best-man works in Thornhill Ind. Park and I have other customers there as well.

Been to the Jiffy Lube, out there, and Seven Fields Corp. Park.

Like the Beach Boys sang, "I get around."

No interest in a Rolex Tudor Hydronaut?

This just in.......

I was really impressed with the bracelet,,so much I might end up using it sometime but too short for my 7.5 inch wrist,,,any suggestions on picking up an extra link?
a few more with an interesting bond nato....
