No really, check my join date!

Long story short, I'm a US Army veteran currently living in NYC and attending Columbia University. Currently own a couple ORIS divers watches (stainless steel TT1 and titanium "Der Meistertaucher" regulator), but didn't post wrist shots since I'm not sure anyone would be too interested in seeing them!

I've spent time on the forums soaking up as much Rolex info as possible, and am just about ready to pull the trigger on a GMT-IIc... or a SubC... no, make that a GMT-IIc... ahh damn it, I can't decide. I do plan on buying from one of the TRF trusted sellers, unless a NYC AD wants to give me a 10% discount!

The watch for me would represent a few things: first, as a way to commemorate my successful (and safe) enlistment in the military. I did quite a bit of travelling, so in that respect the GMT wins out - also, the green text and 24hr hand in my mind are kinda Army-ish. Second, I turn 30 this December so I figure a Rolex would be a good way to bring on the next decade of life.

I'm very thankful to the senior members of the forum who share consistently their knowledge and experience. Hopefully I'll be able to post a "My new Rolex!" thread in the very near future.
