Thanks for having me

I’m new and didn’t really know much. I still don’t. My mom left me her fathers 1957 gold OP. My dad left me a 1969 GMT Pepsi. And my mom gave me a sub when I got back from overseas in 1998. I always thought they were cool but didn’t know what I had in 3 generations of watches until I joined here and started researching just recently. Thanks for the knowledge. I just bought my 4th from someone one the forum. And I suspect not my last.

Cheers and thanks

Newt

Thanks expat. I’d honestly had no idea how deep and extensive watch culture, history, and knowledge are.
