Hello TRF!

I have been lurking on TRF for a long time and finally registered. I am in my mid 20s and have been wearing my father's Air King 14000 after I graduated from college. Instead of splurging on bags and shoes, I have been saving towards a 16713 Root Beer for my father and hopefully a 16710 Pepsi or Coke for myself next.

Besides my love of vintage Rolex, I also own a Bergeron 6825 and 7825 tweezers so I can swap out bracelets and watch bands myself (pretty big deal for a girl!). Right now my Air King is on a vintage leather NATO.

My watch knowledge is still very limited, but I am very eager to learn. I hope TRF can tolerate any dumb questions I may have and I promise I will pay back with lots of interesting stories!

Kate
