Hello from San Diego

Hello everyone, just want to take a moment to introduce myself, my name is Michael G, 22 years old from San Diego, CA. Been collecting watches for a couple years now, but this year the horology bug has bit me hard! Been lurking on TRF for awhile now and finally decided to make an account. I work in the solar energy business and also enjoy Guitars, cigars, traveling, exotic cars, art, tae kwon do among other things.. Would love to get to know other people on here and maybe people in my area as there doesn't seem to be a strong group of collectors in San Diego, especially none close to my age :(.

My current collection :

Rolex GMT II pepsi 16700
Rolex GMT II pepsi 16710
Rolex Yachtmaster TT 16623
Panerai PAM 219 Destro
Omega Speedmaster Pro

Feel free to introduce yourself below! Thanks - MG

I just vacationed in your area last week. You might want to visit Ben Bridge. Mighty fine folks in the La Jolla (Westbridge) branch. I left the store broke but happy. Okay, the wife left the store broke but I was happy.
