markiemark Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 I've been a member for a couple months now creeping around here, but I never introduced myself. Since I'm more often on RWG I decided to do a little introduction: My name is Mark, I am a 23 year old webdesigner from the Netherlands. I bought my first rep when I was 16, it was a Breitling Bentley edition, plastic-shiny kind for $60. It was waaaay too big so it was literally hanging on my wrist (like a rapper). Two years ago I bought my first 'good' rep, a PAM253 from a dude on YouTube (see pic below) and I'm still proud of it. The strap is a bit messed up since the quality of the leather is the cardboard kind. Last week I ordered a French Ammo strap from Ted Su and I'm waiting for it like a kid on Christmas. When it arrives I'll show it off here! At this moment I'm saving up for a new rep, not sure which one yet. My preferences so far: PAM111 Noob, PAM88/237 H-factory, Submariner 114060 Noob (hate the bezel insert and hands though), JLC NSD, and the APROO Diver. Thats about it... O and the promised pic: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redwatch Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Welcome to the forum! I think there was or is a member here that is in his teens, but you are definitely one of the younger ones!! Definitely can't go wrong with the newest noob 111. A very popular and very "close-to-gen" example! Another favorite of mine is the PAM 390. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plaifender Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Welcome! At 23 I doubt you're the youngest member here. I joined the original RWG back in 2006 when I was 22 (I'm 29 now).. I was a younger member.. but over the years we've even seen high schoolers around here. So yeah.. don't try to make you're self feel younger than you are... you just make us others feel like OLD FARTS!! haha. Have fun and welcome to the jungle.
