You better relax, it is not acceptable to insult other members.

So if you would like to apologise that will be fine (and noble).

Apologize. That kind of vocabulary should not be tolerated. We come from different backgrounds and cultures. What keep us together is respect and the love for Rolex.

Junior, don't you have anything better to do, like taking stock of the situation and seeing that you're going to be ushered out of here in a real hurry if you don't play nice?

Now wind your neck in, and right now.

He's had a warning i believe, imo kick him off, but i suppose everyone gets a second chance.

Respect
Tolerance
and yep, i suppose long suffering when it comes to JJ's posts

Seriously though, wind it in or take a hike

No way am I going to be baited into that one, buddy. But I'd be prepared to give one week's wages when James storms in with some of his eloquent comments!!!

darthvan, I'm a noob as well, but appreciate this forum & respect it's members.

http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=45732

Be a man & apologize to JJ. I'm sure JJ would be a gentleman & accept a PM from you if you wish to save face by not apologizing publicly.

If you don't want to apologize, then there are other forums who would welcome your attitude with open arms.

You are obviously not fashionable, everybody knows aviators are hot right now. Beckham, Pitt, & all the supermodels wear them.

Those pics are great. That watch is truly beautiful. You are a shining star amongst this forum and a champion of watch care.

As for the comments about you and any recent garbage sent your way my friend...you seem to have done okay by my yardstick....

Beautiful wife, gorgeous daughters and great, happy, cute grandchildren!!!! Chuck in those lovely watches, your refurbished home, your happiness at your job, your flock of 20000 lovin' ovines, your beloved beers and that weird 'yoghurt on muesli' looking curry and it looks like your living large.

Hail to the King baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
