Guys, Thanks for the warm welcome. I have been a watch lover for some time now. I have a gen Movado SE that I love and is was my daily. It has taken quite a beating over the years and I was looking for a replacement. That is how I discovered this crazy world of reps. My problem now is.....I think I want them all. I look forward to learning and reading about all the brands. I think I am going to start off with the infamous BKmariner. From what I have read I can't go wrong with that.
