Introduction

Afternoon everyone,

Just thought I'd do a little intro post. Firstly, I must confess I do not own a Rolex, but I will... Am currently a medical student so funds certainly don't allow right now. Also a member on WUS and the Christopher Ward forum, I enjoy these sites for a good bit of procrastination between studying and to further my horological education!

Been into watches now for nearly a year and I am hooked. Currently have two CWs:





I think that is the end of my association with buying CWs as I have become much more interested in higher end watches. With my graduation approaching I will be getting my first high end watch, the favourite at the moment is a Speedmaster Professional. Will also consider a 116000 but only if the shop has a blue dial 3-6-9 which is unlikely I know.

So there you go, am just here to learn more and admire your fantastic Rolexes.

Cheers,

WS

Welcome to the forum !! We always need and have plenty of room for more fine gentlemen like your self !
and what a fine way of introducing your self, well played

You have a great looking pair of duos Love that leather band and white dial combo

And early congrats on your long term dedication to your medical field, My ex was in that field and it's no lie.. some high tension level of stress is definitely there, sir you have one hell of a patient mind.

Can't wait till you grad and get into your first rolex (or any other brand you chose at the time) with pics for us to celebrate with you !!

good luck !

Nothing wrong with either of those CWs, and with the dress and sport models you are covered for all occasions!

good goal to have! i remember as an undergrad i started seeing rolexes among my peers (some inherited, others splurged). knew i wanted one, and it was just a matter of time.

oh, and please don't become one of those doctors that wears scrubs to morton's ;)
