Hi all,

Complete new guy here. No experience with reps, completely overwhelmed at how deep this rabbit hole goes.

I am really enjoying the discussions and info on here.

Have my eye on a few reps already.

Hopefully will learn something and be able to contribute to the discussions.

Thanks, Tom.

I'm with these guys. Less than a month in and I'm already two reps deep. Blissful perils lie ahead. 

And btw, welcome!

I will probably end up with a lower cost beater to start with but the 3 main watches I want to get my hand on are a:

Rolex -Air King

Breguet Type XX1 3817

Omega Speedmaster

Although my catalogue of watch images is growing since being here.

How and what did you guys start with?

Hello and welcome to RWG. 

I started with a sun dial  at the age of 5. Time pieces have come a long way since then so they tell me.............. :beer2:

Tom welcome, I am very new here and have purchased 9 watches in the past month, it's a slippery slope once you're over the edge, it's fun enjoy it for what it is, and read all the thumb tac posts, to avoid having the backlash some suffer at most peoples amusement

Of course I started with a Rolex sub 116610. Im sure most people do. I'm really new at this too. But with a lot of research, I've recently bought an AP 15400 and I'm looking into a Tag Carrera for my next purchase! It's amazing what shit I've gotten myself into

9 reps in a month. I'm fairly sure my wife and kid not being able to eat for the month would become an issue if I was to purchase a handful of quality reps in a month lmao.

Thanks for all the welcomes. 

Yeh, I'm currently looking for a low cost ****-tier watch that I can wear for work. Hunting around for something that's gonna look okay with hands that move and cheap.

From what I read on here so far though, that's pretty hard to achieve.:archaeology:....searching

Look at Narikaa, or Silix economy.  Or sign up as a VIP and a whole world of cheap watches will be revealed.  Many many POS, and the occasional diamond.

 I had planned to sign up for VIP once I was settled in. I didn't realise that it opened up anything extra it regards to sales. 

Just had my first look through the M2M's. Tempted already lmao.
