Icon3 New member, new AP

Just wanted to say hi to this forum. The watch below is my first AP and it looks like I am hooked. I have originally bought this watch as it felt very special and unique on my wrist the first tried them on. After wearing RO for just over a month I feel even more in love with them so...I want more. Just wanted to share a few pictures:

Welcome to TRF
A very nice AP indeed you have there, glad to hear you enjoy it.
What's your age if I may ask?
I still have to get my first AP (turning 39 next month here)

Thank you for the warm welcome guys.

Steve, I am 32 and I am blessed to be able to afford a piece like that. Just for the reference, my wrist size is 6.5".

Wow, but I confess, I am glad you can afford such wonderful watch.
And I am sure it won't be your last AP too.
6.5" wristsize means you can pull off bigger size watches too
