New Member Hunting The First Vintage Rolex
Hello All
I just made a rookie mistake of posting in the discussion forum and I included a link which then wouldn't post because of my lack of 10 previous posts. This I can understand but I lost everything I typed! Anyway I'm back to basics... My name is Steve and I'm a Scotsman living in Adelaide, Australia. I own a 2011 DSSD and have always craved a birth year version of my favourite watch. I hunt the internet and forums daily looking for that elusive 1979 Pepsi GMT. I have found a watch I'm interested in via my daily chrono24 email. I now have questions for the geeks about originality. Wish me luck. Steve |

So my join date was September 11. I guess I've been lurking for a while without posting, ooooooops.

Looks like you win that one!  Thanks for the welcome guys! You seem a lot friendlier than the arrogant person that has PM'd me! He tried to offer me a younger version of the watch I wanted having decided I was a fool to want a birth year watch. I politely pointed out that he was missing the point but was told to get over my ego. What a strange man and seemingly very well established on the forum! Cheers Steve |
