Another Newbie yawn yawn

[crostonian]

Hi everyone, been a visitor of this forum for a while having been advised of it by fellow pistonhead members. I have a Rolex Submariner 16610 which I have owned from new and am very reluctant to part with. Being half Italian I am drawn toward Panerais and one reason for viewing this forum is to try and sort out the myriad of models they produce, which ones are desirable and which less so. I also admire the Chopard Mille Miglia range and have been drooling over the Glasshute Sport Chrono that has just sold from the sales section here, also have a hankering for a Millgaus GV. I must admit I do think of resale value first and foremost when looking to buy and am currently looking to add to my collection of one with one of the aforementioned.

Hello and welcome - good taste so far, it would be nice to see some pictures of your watches :wink:

Will see what I can do with my digi camera tomorrow, my Sub is crying out for a refurb having been worn virtually everyday since I bought it approx 7 years ago. Must admit if I hadn't bought it from new would probably consider trading it but there's something about knowing that it's your watch and only yours plus it was bought as a reward for a pretty big personal achievement.

Thanks for the welcome guys, must admit I'm a touch naive when it comes to some of your abreviations and acronyms but learning fast so please bear with me.

Hi there, only been here a couple of days myself..... also over from PH!

Looks like a nice list you have, might be wise to stay away from the sale section, I have been tempted loads already! :D

This is a very poor pic I've just taken of my Sub, worn daily for 7 years+ and showing a few scrapes
