Stupid stupid itch... nothing can scratch it!

I am sitting here in the dark (it's 7pm in Chicago) - I'm too lazy to turn on the lights, I should be going to the gym.. but I'm sitting here in the dark surfing the forums on my macbook.

I am looking through our FS section and the Paneristi.com FS section and I just cannot get over the number of watches I want!

I want a YG GMTIIC, a WG Sub Smurf, a Panerai 233 or 270, a Panerai 292 (pig or pigless)...

... then there's the newbies: the Hulk LV.

*Sigh*...

... I just had to vent. I just don't get how I can have my trifecta of Rolexes but still not be entirely content.

Is something wrong with me? Does anyone else feel the same?

I'm going to the gym now.

Face it you are infected and you need a fix.

You can smell it, you can see it, and you can almost feel it.

NOW GO GET IT!!!!

Just remember to post the Pics when you have it.

Joey_V · 2 October 2010, 10:23 AM

I need help to STOP it, not to FEED it!!

I think all he needs is a little push.

Anybody out there willing to give him a gentle push?

I feel your pain. I just scratched the itch, and now I want more! Eh, I guess there are worse things to be passionate about!!!

I can give you a new reason to buy it from someone who responded to one of my posts. The Myan calander ends on Dec 23, 2012....the end of the world. You have a little over 2 years to enjoy the watch so go get it. Hope this helps.............lol

IF you decide to get one those are real cool ones as well. I went with a DJII for my third watch. It's a TT and it's the one with the Green Roman Numerals.

I got addicted, and it's so darn difficult to resist them.

That's a beautiful watch, for sure.

Is there a S/S or TT white dial DJII with Roman numerals though?

Sorry Dan, turns out I was two days off - according to official sources (see below), it's 21 Dec 2012. So that gives Joey even less time to scratch his itches!

That chunk of gold is spoken for, Tim... He is trading up.

Kiddodoc · 2 October 2010, 10:10 PM

I know the feeling. I have been getting the itch for 116619 myself and it's a crazy itch......like damn Jock Itch! But someday soon, it will happen!

Shade · 2 October 2010, 11:03 PM

I wish I have four arms so I have an extra excuse to buy more watches because I can wear more of them at the same time.. Lol.

mach330 · 3 October 2010, 02:53 AM

Joey, we all have the disease here. It's called WATCHES WATCHES WATCHES.

Last night I couldn't sleep because I couldn't stop thinking about vintage GMTs. I just got one a month ago and is still not enough. My collection is quite large and I have almost every piece I've always dreamed of but unfortunately with this disease it's never enough.

It's really not about the watches but what we feel when we get them. That's what we are really addicted to. Like with any other addiction we crave the sensation and feelings associated with the activity of buying a new piece.

dddrees · 3 October 2010, 12:24 PM

Joey I don't wish to hijack your thread, however I think my kidding must of backfired.

Joey you must have put a hex on me for giving you such a hard time.

I did a very bad thing.

I paid a visit to my local AD today and I did not come back home empty handed.

I know have the RG and strap combo I was looking for.

I'm saving the wrist shot for when I get my deployment clasp, which should be about 2 weeks.

TSts · 3 October 2010, 12:48 PM

Joey, I know what you're saying.... I just picked up a SS Daytona and now I want the DJII, Stainless, Rhodium dial and blue arabics.... Maybe next year---------

rxonmymind · 3 October 2010, 12:52 PM

Know how you feel.. Good luck.
