Howdy from Oklahoma

Hey, everyone.

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. I'm a life long watch lover in my late 20's from Oklahoma.

I have always loved watches, but didn't really know what I was doing until coming across TRF. Reading this forum helped give me the knowledge I needed before purchasing my first "nice watch" - which, of course, could only be a Rolex. I've been in love with my GMTc since buying it in January.

My birthday is next week so I'm contemplating a DJII (blue sticks) or Explorer I (39mm) to complement the GMT. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, all!

Welcome and from those two, personally I like the 39mm Explorer more (also maybe due to the fact that I have these skinny wrists) but yeah, you can't go wrong with either one.

Welcome to TRF, Happy B-Day and DJII (blue sticks) or Explorer I (39mm) are great watches. Pick the one that really pulls on your heart strings!

that gmt is a great watch. a white faced milgauss would be an excellent compliment, it's also tornado resistant!

Welcome aboard !!! Either one would be a nice
choice !!! Consider also the Yachtmaster 1 blue dial
or TT Sub C sunburst blue dial aka ... Bluesy Submariner!!!
Either of those 2 as well would compliment your
GMT LN very nicely !!!
