After having been a long time "lurker" I thought it time to make my debut post here on TRF. I acquired my first Rolex this past fall and it's been a "slippery slope" ever since. I'm not one to make a quick decision so (after missing out on a few online deals because I waited too long) I ran over to my local AD to peruse their selection. I absolutely fell in love with the Milguass GV. Being a lover of all things vintage, I knew this was the watch for me. I know the second hand is a bit "quirky" to some members but this feature ultimately sold me on the watch. After wearing the watch a hand-full of times I realized that I craved another . . . This time I had my eye on the Submariner. I chose the non-date, non COSC (a true classic IMHO and a big thanks to Steve Mulholland). Also, as a James Bond fan I knew that the Sub is the model to own if you intend to wear it on a strap. My next purchase won't be another Rolex but rather a new camera! Hope you enjoy.

Love the Millie LV! Nice purchase.
I am pretty new here to and about to post my first pics... how do I do it? Do I have to link it to a URL?

Thanks for any help.

I use photobucket.com. Upload the photos you want to their web page then you select add image in your post, copy the link to the pop up box. Then preview your post and if it's all ok post it!!
