    Default Greetings from Los Angeles -

    Hi - I'm new to this forum and to rep collecting. So far, I have a Santos 100 chronograph and a few gen watches. I have a huge list of watches that I want to buy and it doesn't include a sub!

    Glad I found the forum - I have a lot to learn.

    Looking for another Santos w/brown band, Several APs (as soon as the the seconds at 12 riddle is solved) - a non-chrongraph will have to do for now, a B&R of some sort and... (drum roll) a PAM111.

    Thanks!

    So let me guess Lemmy.... Traffic is so stupid on the 405 that you have time to whip out the lap top and join us while you make the never ending trip home.... I'm in Manhattan Beach. Welcome.. Great bunch of people here...

    As long as I've been in L.A. there has been a project to improve the 405. Each time a lane is added to great fanfare and within 24 hours, the 405 is again a parking lot.

    LAX is a huge part of the problem. BTW - I'm in Playa Del Rey. Southbay rules! Thanks for the welcome - this is a great site.

    The 405 and 101 are my most dreaded roads on Planet Earth. Every time I'm on those roadways it feels like an accident waiting to happen.

    We only use the freeways when we're going downtown (eat, museum, Disney Hall) or leaving Los Angeles - usually going North.

    I do not use them to commute. There was an article a few years ago that used insurance company statistics indicating that commuting on certain freeways (710, 110, 5, 405 iirc) guarantees one of an accident every 3 years.

    "6,000,000,000 people on earth and they all want to live in Los Angeles"

    Not gonna argue that one but you get my drift.

    Great to have you here. No sub rep? Thats a shame. Check out the SSD (Super Sea Dweller)..Probably the best Rolex rep other than a BKmariner. Again, Welcome.
