My 1st post
Hi Everyone. I just joined this forum as I am looking to purchase a Sea Dweller aka my 1st Rolex. I am from Denver, CO and have had an on and off relationship with watches. Currently, it's on.
I am in the process of selling other collectibles to raise funds for my purchase. I am able to buy now, but would have to dip into family money. I am going to sell some Leica equipment soon. I f anyone has a Sea Dweller or would like a good rangefinder Leica, please contact me. Thanks everyone. |

Hi there, welcome aboard!
I like your approach, sell this to free up fun money for that. Good luck on the SD quest.

Welcome, when you get a SD you will have a watch for life, I'm betting it will not be a watch that will allow your enthusiasm to waine.

Update: Got my Sea Dweller
Thanks everyone for the kind words of welcome. I couldn't wait to sell stuff, bought a used K serial Sea Dweller. It just arrived about 2 hours ago. I will try and post pictures next week as I am going out of town now. I can honestly say that it's better than I thought it would be! I still need to sell that Leica stuff.

Quick shot of Sea Dweller
Sorry about the low artisitc standards. Here is a quick, hairy arm shot of my Sea Dweller. I bought it from a seller on another forum and it was a great experience. I'm not sure of the protocol about those things here, so I will not mention names.
