First post! I'm graduating college in June. I'm currently interning and will transition into full-time work. I bought a TT 1601 Datejust last summer and if I work my butt off and save, I plan to purchase a RG TT datejust in two years time.

Hi all, my first post here as I've just become a Rolex owner. I have several Omegas & JLCs (both modern & vintage), and an AP RO, but have only taken the plunge into Rolex now. Here's my GMT II Coke.

Regional Director for global non-profit - Explorer II (42mm) and Daytona SS that never gets worn (I'm from Daytona Beach so it seemed to make sense at the time).

Which Rolex(es) do you own and what do you do for a living???

Entrepreneur, self-employed surf bum and philanthropist. All sports models (about 14) and a TT DJ a previous employer gave me, far out man.

Living here in the Northwest of course I’m a

Lumberjack and I’m okay
I sleep all night and I work all day

[feel free to join in on the refrain]

He’s a lumberjack and he’s okay
he sleeps all night and he works all day


I’m a lumberjack and I’m okay
I own a Submariner and a two-tone *DJ

[all together now]

He’s a lumberjack and he’s okay
he owns a Submariner and a two-tone DJ


(*no longer own a TT DJ but couldn’t think of
a model that rhymes with “okay”. Check out my avatar
for what I currently do own).

20, neuroscience and cardiology research/finishing up undergraduate studies. Currently anxiously in the midst of applying to medical schools...

Worked hard and am grateful for my 16710, which I expect will serve me well for years to come.

Trying! So far I've not had sole claim on any one piece of our research sufficient for authorship privileges yet... I am but a lowly research assistant in awe of more experienced minds.

But I will certainly keep at it! Research is uniquely rewarding. Thank you for the good wishes my friend.
