Jeez Tony, nice picture. Oh, and never commit a crime, 'cause the CSI's now have your prints.

Hey Allen, where abouts in the Commonwealth are you located? Not specifics or anything, but proximity wise. I'm up in NoVA.

EDIT - damn, you changed the pic!!

They've got my prints too, but don't know what life scanned is. Sounds painful.

I can't recall the exact term (mebbe LIVE SCANNED?), but it was done with a machine. Basically took a digital image of my prints... so no ink pad and paper as I remember.

Welcome Headhunter,

Your sub seems to be of a far higher build quality than JJ's bluey.

Is it true that Rolex send their 'seconds' to New Zealand?

Nah, the fakes they send to Kiwiland aren't that good.

Welcome to the forum.

I'd say that since my AD wouldn't budge on the MSRP of my TT Blue Sub that I just bought tonight, You did a hell of a lot better than me.

Anyone know what that average going price is for the TT Daytona? I'm pretty sure they wanted 11,600 for it. Is this the norm or a "good deal" as well?

Here in Auckland, a brand new TT Daytona can be had for around US$9500....maybe even less if you take it out of Auckland International Airport, TAX FREE!!

Why would Rolex not accept money for repair on a used Rolex? I can understand them voiding the factory warranty, but not accepting a watch for repair or service..I must be missing something????
