Sorry, should of posted here first

Hi all,

My name is Marcos and I live in SD, California.....and hoping to start my collection soon!

I have posted on here a few times because I'm looking to start off my collection with a Sub from my birthyear...1975.

This site is awesome and I appreciate all who make it possible because without it, I'd be even more lost and well....that's just pathetic!

Take care and any help with a 1975 Sub would be awesome!

Marcos

Welcome. Here's a site you should know about if you haven't seen it yet:
http://www.vintagesubmariner.com/

There's a 5513 Submariner and a 1680 series that were around in 1975.

Welcome to TRF, Marcos, and yes...rather addicting here!

Best of luck in your search for a vintage 1975 Sub, and even if you don't find one right away, you will probably be tempted to pick up other Rollies that may come along. Here are mine, just to give you some ideas...



Enjoy your time here, and again, best of luck!

Welcome Marcos. That's a great idea to start your collection with a birth year piece. makes it that much more special.

Either the 5513/12 or 1680 would be a great vintage start. Take your time and if you need anything please shout.
