Alex Stylianou · 12 March 2007, 04:37 PM

Oh Well . Guess You Want One Of The Ex'es Back Huh ?

diablojota · 12 March 2007, 04:41 PM

Congrats on selling it. Hopefully that'll be the extent of what you'll need to part with.

greenfan · 12 March 2007, 05:30 PM

JJ, I hope this is only temporarily and you´ll be able shortly to buy many more Rolexs......

aeroguy · 12 March 2007, 05:40 PM

If you "love" her why did you pay for the "blue" one?!?!?!?

Never mind... Just thinking back to things other than watches... :)

Hint... there are not blue sheep... Unlesss the "oldes" dye their wool....

Wow! don't drink at Narita... that beer machine in the United lounge is sweet!!

amanda · 12 March 2007, 05:59 PM

Congrats on the sale JJ.. I hope too, that this is the only one you have to part with.

All the best for the hunt... job hunt that is.

Cheers
Amanda

ABushman · 12 March 2007, 06:51 PM

Congrats JJ - I hope the sale helps to ease the current situation, and that said situation resolves itself soon, so that you may go back into acquisition mode!

padi56 · 12 March 2007, 06:55 PM

JJ glad you have now got it sold,and remember its only a watch and
replaceable.

Earl · 12 March 2007, 07:16 PM

Take care JJ glad to hear you had a easier time selling the sub.

Earl

Prince · 12 March 2007, 07:59 PM

Congrats on the sale, but a bittersweet thing indeed.

President · 12 March 2007, 08:01 PM

May luck and Rolexes follow you throughout the rest of your life, JJ!

nko51 · 12 March 2007, 09:39 PM

Beautiful Pic's as always. I sympathize with you having to depart with it. I hope things turn around for you very soon.

colemanitis · 12 March 2007, 10:11 PM

Sorry you had to sell it, but remember it's only a watch and can always be replaced.

Ragu · 12 March 2007, 10:16 PM

Congrats on selling your baby!

Wishing you all the best from Southern, FL.

sevoguy · 12 March 2007, 10:49 PM

JJ, congrats on selling that beauty! Peg and I send our best wishes

TARDIS · 12 March 2007, 10:52 PM

Hey JJ don't get blue about it mate. You still have that TT.

I hope you got a good price for it. I know how you feel, as I have been there last year when I flipped my GMT Master II. I recall you told me not to at the time. Should've llstened to you then!!

Good luck with everything JJ!

Fiwi · 12 March 2007, 10:59 PM

JJ, sorry you had to part with Subby. Try to look at is this way, now you won't feel like you're neglecting one when wearing the other! Hope things look up for you soon!

steve-o · 12 March 2007, 11:01 PM

There will be others...we hope...

Arturo · 12 March 2007, 11:04 PM

Hey JJ, glad that you got her sold. Stay positive and you will be buying and not selling next time. We are rooting for you.

mrbieler · 12 March 2007, 11:19 PM

Glad it sold. Best of luck getting things sorted out.

davor · 12 March 2007, 11:39 PM

happy 4 u pal...all the best on the hunt 4 the new baby...naturally the job 2...

santaclaus2100 · 13 March 2007, 12:06 AM

JJ,

Sad to hear that your Sub has to go, but chin up buddy.

Perhaps a job is coming up the horizon. My Godfather used to say, everything could be available for sale except the wife and kids. I don't know if this would sound offensive in other cultures, but I mean well. But things come around, you will be shopping fer yer new Rollie.

Good luck !!

roadcarver · 13 March 2007, 12:54 AM

You have priorities JJ, it is the best thing to do. Glad that you were able to sell your good old subby. At least its going to find a good home.

puffnmo · 13 March 2007, 12:59 AM

JJ- You're still wearing about the most beautiful Rolex on the planet ! Larry.

JJ Irani · 13 March 2007, 02:32 AM

Thanks for all the kind words, guys....truly appreciated.

The watch has gone to a very nice guy in Australia. Hopefully, he will log onto our forum and become a member once he gets the watch. I'm despatching it off today....received the funds only yesterday.

He should receive the watch in a couple of days max. Just across the Tasman!!

astcell · 13 March 2007, 04:10 AM

You need to tell him that the watch has aunts and uncles who watch out (ha!) for it. If he does not logon here he owed you more $$$.

A sad day JJ, but Larry sums it up so well,

kakalika · 13 March 2007, 04:52 AM

Farewell dear Subbie. Have no fear JJ, there will be many more.

Blue Bull · 13 March 2007, 05:07 AM

Hmmm,I wonder if the "17th selling" is just not a "planning phase" for nr 19 ??

Something in the direction of a newly launched TT model,with a touch of green,anniversary offering and big white spots on the dial ??

kcmo · 13 March 2007, 05:45 AM

I'm sure it's really tough to part with her JJ, but I have a feeling she will be replaced sooner than you think...crossing my fingers for you on the job hunt

As long as you have your health you have it all, right?!
