No purchase history? You have every hot watch already and this didn't come from any of those ADs?

Hmmmm, Rolex in Switzerland is closed in January, right? So that means not shipments are being made to ADs? At least that is what my SA said yesterday when I visited, but she was busy selling lady datejusts to guys trying to get on the list.

Sure, OP, based on your previous posts, I don't think so.

(thanks to others in this thread for mentioning it.)

i think you posted one about a SD43 right ?
i will have to go ahead and call BS on this one.

i don't think you actually got both of these, the SD not being a big deal, by just walking in to an AD, Boutique, or anyone else who sells authentic watches.

I would actually argue it is quite difficult to find a picture off Google images with a watch dated the same date as the date of the post. So I do believe he (or someone he knows personally) actually owns the watch. What is happening though is the watch is either bought grey, he's a good friend/relative of an AD owner/manager or he did some crazy bundling. If he bought 200k worth of overpriced jewelry every single time out of those he went into an AD, I'm sure they would have no issues handing him a Kermit a BLRO or a ceramic Daytona every single visit. No waiting list either.

Anyone who shares muitiple purchase stories likes to flex. Any flexer will want to post as many pics as they can of what they want to flex.

This guy only posts the initial image to start the thread and leaves it at that. I don't even recall a wrist shot.

He may get these pics from Gray's. I know Gray's love to send out pics of their new arrivals to their chat groups, hoping to fish a customer.

This is the most interesting incoming thread I’ve ever seen on TRF.

EDIT: Never mind. Went and looked at some of the other incoming threads for the OP and some of them are more interesting.

got a green sub

I think he steals images from YouTube videos. That’s why the date is kind of blurry. For example, his 4 digit v 6 digit Daytona posts looks like it uses a screen grab from London watch collectors videos.

Shin shin is just a troll. Possibly he has a 70s datejust in two tone with a VERY stretched bracelet that he likes to wear and show off to his friends. He is also a foreigner and the DJ might even be a fake. We will never know. The legend of shin shin will continue. Who is he? Where is he? What does he do? What’s his next watch? Why is he traveling 5-6 times to new ADs when he already had several other ADs that he’s purchased from before? Is he even real, or some sort of evolved manifestation of the TRF forum software itself?
