Hi from Mississippi, USA

New to the forum and bought my dream watch last month (16610 SUB) and it was well worth the 10 year wait! I love it and can't stop admiring it on my wrist.

Nice choice for a first Rolex. Enjoy your stay here and I hope this watch is the first of many. I can then point out to my wife that it is normal to have several.

Matt, welcome. Please share some pictures when you can. I can't say I have been to Mississippi -- what are some highlights?

Pine trees and Yazoo clay. Seriously, we have beautiful women, fried catfish and the blues. Toss in a Rolex and it makes for one helluva Saturday night.

To be honest there is an enormous amount of History right here in MS. There are great Civil War Battlefield parks, museums, natural science museums, many many famous authors, athletes, and military heroes from MS. It's a great state and don't believe all of the negative things you may hear. I love Mississippi, but am not opposed to living elsewhere if called to do so.
