Hey everyone! I'm an old man (~40) but am not new to collecting watches, and not new to forums in general. I have a fairly deep gen collection, but have hit a point where I am no longer willing to spend what a bunch of the watches on my wishlist cost at gen pricing. This place has been super neat to find new stuff, learn about what factories make the best stuff, and pick up some reps of stuff I'd have never, ever been able to afford at gen pricing. Thanks and I'm excited to get through my intro timing/posts/making a reputation for myself to resell a few of the pieces I picked up that I realized were not for me, and somebody else should get to enjoy!

Hi and welcome to RWI!
With 40 one is old? Come on.
Nice collection. Maybe you don't need the below, still...
Please take some time to read the sticky threads in the new members area (all subsections), learn the basic forum rules and get some very good advice in the process. A number of questions has already been answered there, this is just an example:

As a new subscriber, you've already been directed to this thread, please read carefully and look through the linked additional threads:

Another good thread to read to understand where RWI comes from and some fundamentals is this:
Most of the information you need to know to start is there. If you're preparing to buy, read the stickies before ordering. When you're finished, you can continue learning by reading the stickies in all remaining sections. If it's stickied, it's important information.
If you intend to sell, read the sales rules and all stickies in the sales section with particular care and make sure you understand each single rule. Sales rules infraction is taken very seriously here. As a new member you are not eligible to sell. Using the sales section is a privilege, eligibility must be earned, make sure you know and understand how.
For anything else, feel free to reach out to @eBoy or me, we're happy to assist, advise, direct, explain. Don't hesitate.
Don't be afraid to post noob questions in the new members area. In doubt, use the flame free zone. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere in the new members area, please reach out to @eBoy or me. Mutual respect is of utmost importance to us. On the other hand, we're grown-ups and are supposed to be able to deal with a bit of irony, don't take it personally, ever, a bit of irony never harmed anyone. If you laugh at jokes, you'll make friends faster.
This forum is a treasure trove of information and benefits from the engagement of all members who take their time to share their knowledge, help each other out and have some fun. We hope that you'll benefit and enjoy this platform as well as contribute positively to it.
If at any point you feel to contribute also on another level, feel free to pm the boss (trailboss99) to become a supporter and get some little perks with the status (editing rights, for example).
Enjoy the forum.

Appreciate you all! I spent a bunch of time on Reddit in the rep forums reading about what factories to buy from, TDs, but am happy to scope it all out here as well! I've been really fortunate to purchase from 4 different sellers/TDs, and end up with great stuff from Clean, VSF, 3kf, etc
