Here 19 days and pulled the trigger-DSSD

Well it only took 19 days of membership to pull the trigger!!
I did plenty of trolling and research, there are a ton of sellers on the site with great feedback, which made it easy to find exactly what I wanted and create a safe transaction....
I missed an opportunity 3 years ago at an AD for the deep sea for only $8900 new, and I have kicked my self everyday for it and wouldn't buy another watch until I picked this one up. This will be my first rolex, I always preferred larger watches as I am a big guy and feel anything smaller than a 41 mm is too small.(all in my head)

I found a great DSSD with DavidSW! He and I worked out a deal very quick and smooth and he turned around my sale in lightning speed!

My DS just got here and I am already planning on my 2nd and 3rd Rolex purchase... But I will have to sneak one in for the wifey first... Happy wife= happy life(or watches for her=more watches for me)

Here are some pics of my DS






Here are some pics of my watches...
Breitling super avenger: bought this when I was 32




Omega seamaster pro300 auto: bought this when I was 26



A little in about this Jersey Boy....grew up at the "Jersey Shore" it's not all like the stuff on MTV!

In addition to my watch addiction... I have a sickness for custom motorcycles, Guns and cars.
Currently have 2014 Ford explorer sport, with a Ton of performance upgrades, complete with first ever wilwood big brake set up, first ever AccuAir I-Level air suspension..

Also have a new custom harley street glide being built with full custom treatment including a 26" front wheel..

I love talking bikes, cars, poker and watches to no end......lol

My truck




My old chopper



Current harley build in progress(done in October hopefully)



I have a lot to learn about watches and Rolex, but if there is anything I can help anyone else with I'm always available....

Oh yeah, and professionally I'm an advertising guy...
