Ishmael Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Technically, I've been a member here for over a year, but I spend most of my time on RWG.bz, some on RWI, and I dabble a bit on the Geek. But today a buddy of mine on the .bz sent me a link to a watch for sale here to ask my opinion. Tried the link and couldn't see it because I wasn't logged on here. Didn't even know if I had an account, so I tried my login/password from the other fora, and sure enough! Figured while I'm at it I'd mosey over here and introduce myself. So hello! I'm up in the good ole' Pacific Northwest, and my long-suffering wife has been putting up with my rep hobby for the last decade plus. As I said, I spend most of my time on the other RWG, but as my tastes have expanded, so has my fora participation. I'm primarily interested in vintage Daytonas - a fancy that can quickly bankrupt its unsuspecting victim. Aside from that, I'm into Breitling (just picked up an SOH V2), A. Lange, Patek, Omega, Tudor, and I've got a bit of a thing for rose gold AP ROOs (Don Ramon, RG Themes, LBJ) - I know I know, they're blingy, and the movement is a time bomb, but I'm easily distracted by shiny things. But my first love is the 6263. I have a couple DWs (gold dial; Albino), a modded cartel gold/black dial, and a special Big Red built by another member. I'd post pics of them here but apparently I can't until I have 5 posts (I'll rectify that shortly). So hi gents; good to be aboard! Cheers, Ish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Welcome aboard! There's a lot of old Daytona afficionados here too, so you're in good company. What part of the Pacific Northwest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted April 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Just outside of Portland, OR. And yes, I've spent the last few hours reading all the vinTona posts I could get my hands on. Some unbelievably impressive stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
