I have seen the light - and it has a red seconds hand

Hello dear TRF-ers

I have been reading the goings on on this forum for a long while, and finally decided to to join in and write something. Apologize in advance for that...

I find watches to be something very interesting and special. When you think about it, it's quite remarkable how we managed to bottle up time in a little metal case.

Rolex has been something which appealed to me for a good several years. As you all know, the hunt is a big part of the pleasure, and I finally joined your esteemed group with a model I really liked (and not many others feel the same) - the SS TOG. The only problem is I find myself staring at the watch and not noticing the time...This will hopefully pass.

Anyway, I wanted to thank all of you for all I learned from you along the way. Now I truly understand - you can't beat the feeling of actually wearing a Rolex.

Welcome to TRF.

Congrats.

Although I don't own a Tog, I do own a couple with some red somewhere on the watch. A little bit of red is always nice and it kind of spices things up a bit.

What about the Milgauss black dial with a bit of orange on the seconds... I like it!

Thank you all for your kind Welcome

The TOG is on a Jubilee bracelet with a Slate dial. Won't compete with your ability in photography...
