A Lurker Stumbles Into the Open

[JohnGrey]

Hello, everyone. I've been a lurker on this forum for some time, mainly for information purposes, and I've decided to say hey to everyone. I'm a relative newcomer to the world of Montres Rolex; I've been an Omega man all my life, and that's primarily what I still am. My father purchased my first Rolex, a Sub, for me when I graduated university and later as I started doing deep sat and exotic gas diving, I fell in love with the 16600. A girlfriend a few years back bought me a vintage 1505 TT Date; naturally I didn't not dump the watch along with her.

In between being an programmer and amateur writer/journalist, my hobbies are photography, diving, climbing, horses, and my lifelong love of horology that began when my grandfather gave me an Omega cal. 861 to play with. I took it apart and then put it back together. When it started working, I was hooked. That's about it, I think.
