I am loving my Kermit so far. My AD called me and told me that they would hold if for me. The next day I was there...last thursday...Remember, no sales tax in Oregon. I guess the problem is finding where one is. You might try calling Skees Jewelry in Eugene. You could fly up, take a trip to the Oregon coast, and get your watch tax free. Skees is not my AD, and I am not referring you to them as they tell me that they only get one greenie a year and I guess I got it. But Skees has a large line of Rolex watches and might be able to help you.

Maybe it is spelled Skeis..IF you like I will get you the direct and absolute information with phone number. You DO need a relaxing trip to the mid Oregon Coast for some good Salmon and beach walking in the late winter. IT is always beautiful, and then a tax free Rollie to boot?????

I bought my bl. & gold Sub from Skies 3 years ago for $5800.- tax free. It was an all-around great experience, especially as they even knocked a couple hundred off the price! Can't recommend them highly enough.

Thanks for the heads up Val... I don't know if Steven79 has already left on his adventure...
I think he mentioned the 24th as his departure date...

I love my Kermit. I was in a stressful conference call with some Type A a_ _ holes today, and I started looking for my zen self to let their stupidity flow above me, as I did not want to listen to moronic chatter. I looked at that green peaceful Kermit and felt calm. It helped me ignore these nuts and I let them fight it out. I needed not join in.

I too hope that our friend's adventure turns out ok.
Its a bit to travel for a watch, but then if the pleasure is more than the pain. there is still something to gain. Last edited by santaclaus2100; 28 February 2007 at 04:10 PM.. Reason: posted to wrong member's name |
