Hey everyone! This place is great!

Just wanted to say hello to everyone, and more importantly, a big thank-you!! This place is amazing! A friend of mine who is into reps gave me a link to this place, as I was admiring some of his reps, and decided I'd like to start a collection of my own :)

I've spent the last few days reading and learning as much as I can, and I just have to say I'm so appreciative of the wealth of knowledge collected here! I've never known a lot about reps or gens for that matter, but the more I read the more interested I've become. It will take some time for me to keep all the movements and technical terms straight in my head, but I really want to learn!

So far, I hate to admit, but I already made a purchase (somewhat of an impulse buy). I bought the Ballon Bleu de Cartier-Mid Size with the Asian 21J from Ruby (I'm hoping it fits though, as I only have a 5 1/2 inch wrist). I've always loved the look of that watch, but couldn't/wouldn't ever afford the gen, and to be honest, I had no idea there were such extensive options in the rep world. I did read some good things about Ruby in the review section (though nothing too recent??) so I hope my fist purchase will turn out ok. And now the waiting game begins and I am trying to be ever so patient!

I'm planning another order both for me and maybe one for my husband (who also knows nothing about watches), but I want to take my time, and do more research before I make the next purchase. So far the contenders are the Frank Muller Ladies Conquistador with the Swiss Eta 2671-2 and the pink dial or the Rolex Masterpice Mid with the Swiss Eta 2671-2, smooth bezel,and grey dial. I'd like to also get a larger, more masculine watch for myself, but that is so out of my circle of knowledge, it will take more time for me to research those :)

So, sorry for this really long first post! Usually I'm kind of shy on forums, and end up being more of a "lurker" than anything else. I just though it proper to introduce myself, and more importantly to let all know that the information provided here is much appreciated!
