....and that's just what they do...
One of these days, these wrists are gonna
Have Rollies on both of them too!!

(music, music!!)

Well guys,

I think when the good Lord made me, He somehow knew I was going to be a Rolex buff, so He made my wrists - PERFECT - for Rolex, that is!!

I think I would be one of the very lucky few who can grab most BRAND NEW Rollies straight out of box with their original bracelet factory setting and slip it over my wrist. No adjustments whatsoever!!

Yes, guys, these wrists were certainly made for Rolex!!!

I heard Rolex is looking for a new director of advertising. maybe it's time to leave the museum??

I do enjoy your enthusiasm, as I feel the same way. not about the wrists though, my sub requires some adjusting..

Now I know you don't just have fun with those sheep, it looks as if you're wearing one on your arm under that watch!!!

Oh yeah, I forgot, it's cold on your side. BTW, I did get rid of the TT YM and jumped on the 16610 bandwagon again..

We'll find out. Right now the sub feels right at home already. It's been 28 hours and counting. If I miss it too much, I'll just glance at pics of yours.

I feel better with stainless steel. I'll probably go back to TT when I can afford more than one.

I feel lucky that I'm able to own atleast one. Not everyone is so lucky.

I like the way you think, my friend. If I had a choice to keep only ONE Rolex, it would have to be this one and this one only!!

Dear Russel

Care to tell us Turfers about the two thick white stains on your clasp.

There are times when the rollie should be taken off...

Mods please delete if offensive. Its a cold sat morning in nz.

Hi Don,

Certainly a cold morning here....I guess it's better than some of the heat those poor guys are experiencing.

Great to have you back and posting, pal.

Cheers - JJ

C.J. · 22 July 2006, 06:36 AM

I don't mean to go off topic here, but wouldn't " these forearms were made wool" be a more appropriate title in this case?

sub2004 · 22 July 2006, 07:03 AM

hi jj

Yes its freezing cold today. Im just chilling with the electric blanket on and it does feel good to be on turf again, Its such a friendly community.

I can decide between a sd, exp ii, daytona or panny. Will have to spend more time staring at the mansors display before buying.

Thank god you told me to get a ss sub. I would have regretted if i hadnt.

The 2nd rollie is a harder decision... will call you (let me of a free time) so we can discuss possible choices for my 2nd rollie. I want to reward myself for turning 26. I remeber you and me discussing the sub as a 24th birthday pressie for myself. So glad i took your advice.

Cheers

Ok, I cleaned my Submariner; here's the before and after:

Next time I'll be sure that my watch is clean.

JJ Irani · 22 July 2006, 04:27 PM

Well done, Russel....you've certainly kept that watch in pristine condition.

Reminds me of someone I know!!
