Hi MuZI, welcome to Repgeek. I started out like you once not knowing anything about the scary rep word but after almost 10 months and 2,000 posts later I can give you some advice.

First off, I know TWP is having that nice “RESPECT” sale. Don’t bother buying that 111h from him. The transaction isn’t going to go well and I doubt he will be around much longer. Instead check out DSN… yes that guy with the insanely expensive PAMS. $350 for a Swiss Swan Neck 111h might sound like a lot now… but go ahead and pic one up.

Also, you remember that guy named JimmyFu you saw on ebay selling those Pam Homage cases? Might wana pick up some…. They might come handy later on. They're going for around $100 now... might be worth something more later on!

Also I know you hate Base Dial pams but I suggest you start collecting them. You might like them later on… especially PVD ones.

Also, there might come a time when you sleep next to 20+ pams next to your bed… get a decent watchbox! Don’t skimp on straps either. They can make or break a watch!

Anyway, good luck!
