New Member- Thanks!

Hi All,

New member. I just wanted to say hello and thanks for the website and the members. I have learned a ton from some impressively knowledgeable members.

I have been a watch collector for over 25 years. I have collected several gens over the years and appreciate the hobby but just as easily appreciate a cool Rep, Seiko, or inexpensive watch. I just love watches.

My first replica was the preverbial "****ters" from DHGATE which included big pilots, panerai with crystals that looked like coke botttles, Bell andRoss BR01-92s that looked like my kids built it. Many of these I now own as Gens. It is amazing to see how far the reps have come nearly 20 years later.

Fast forward to today. I maintian my reps but got the watch bug again after buying a BB58 for my son for graduation. Right now he is living better recently than me watch wise haha. Since the bug hit, I have purchased 3 VSF subs because 3 is 1 and 1 is none. Hulk, Black, and Smurf. I know the Smurf is an easy spot with stainless vs. WG but who cares. I am not pretending anyway.

Now I am struggling with a 15400 AP, Clean Daytona, or a Titanium Big Pilot. Opinions welcome.

Anwyay- thanks and appreciate the forum.

Cheers!

Welcome to RG!
