Hello from Norway

Hi all.

I've been visiting this site from time to time, but haven't registered before now.
I'm an ex military, ex diver, currently working in the oil & gas industry after a few years at the university.
My fascination for Rolex started in -94 when one of my colleagues in the army showed me his Submariner.
This watch really suffered from major beatings, but ticked on despite being submitted to all kind of harsh treatment such as jumping out of airplanes, diving, rolling around in the mud, overseas operational action, you name it...
That's when I decided I needed one of those.
Now that my financial situation allows for some treats I'm the proud owner of a 14060M, a Datejust and a Cellini. Hopefully some more to come.
I'm looking forward to a lot of interesting reading on this site in the future.

Cheers UJU.

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Kineticwash; If you're lucky with the weather there's no better place to be during May.
