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

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! |

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 !! |

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!! ![]()

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 $$$.

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 ?? |

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
