I didn’t see the word “liar” once...it’s a long-standing tradition here on TRF, “pics or it didn’t happen”.

Once it has been sent just save it to your galley and upload.
OK, I will do that in the morning. I have a 3 month old and all of my boxes w/ receipts are in the room he sleeps in. I don't want anyone saying I'm using photos that I took but didn't own the watch. Give me 5 hours until he wakes up, then will do all this. Appreciate the wait.

5 hours at a stretch for a 3 month old... you are being optimistic

Just use a free image hosting site to upload your pics. Then you can link to them from here.
I've been using the hosting site below, it's fairly straight forward.

Am I the only one who thinks Patrick Ottomani's email/letter looks suspect ..... the grammer alone, never mind the blue font which denotes an edited forwarded email on top of the original email signature in black.

I have worked with enough Nigerian vendors over the years to notice doctored documents.

DJ 41 Blue Dial Jubilee Bracelet Fluted Bezel
GMT CHNR
GMT BLNR
Daytona 116519LN
SD43 50th Anniversary
Sky Dweller SS White Dial

Non Rolex, also got an AP 15450ST Blue Dial

All are in the nursery with the 3 month old baby .... except the BLNR which is in the bank and the Sky which hasnt "arrived" yet?????

All bought in a 3 month period from one AD when the current trend is that its unlikely that a single AD would have seen all of these pass through the door in that period ..... let alone sell all of them to a non-vip customer with a single watch purchase history.


I think there is a bridge missing a troll.

Lots going on here, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt and will be curious until tomorrow.

For what it’s worth, last month was at an AD that had the Hulk, CHNR, SD43, TTSeaDweller and White SkyD available. (and yes, they’ve all been sold)

Not saying it’s likely, but it is possible the right shop has had access to all of these.

(I went with the SD43 as I had no other Rolex diver, and I loved the look of it in person)

This is the strangest thread I think I’ve ever read. The ladies in the background of photo above are the only thing here that halfway redeems this nonsense.

I respect your optimism for complimenting something you can only see the shade of a pixel

I hope to owe you an apology. So let's see that collection you have amassed by virtue of who you know.

***full disclosure old shot...I have traded and bought some replacements since this was taken. Collection not accessible currently***


Sweet lord... what a collection

Woke up to some pretty absurd comments here, saying I doctored images of an email. The more I think about it, what do I need to prove to you people. I don't care what you believe or not TBH. Even if I took the time do "prove it", then what, at most you say "ok, so what" and at worst continue on like some of you have been. I have no interest in being a part of this anymore. I have other things to do.

With your anger at accusations of doctoring photos or lying. I have no problem believing any and everything you have said. Your tone however appears brash and the experiences you describe are inconsistent with what many of us have experienced. Lastly your inability to post pictures is particularly odd when old men such as myself (who haven't grown up with this technology) can sort it out, and you a young man (newborn child) can't figure it out.

With all that said make all the naysayers feel stupid, make me apologize, set an example for your child that his father doesn't walk away tail between legs when his credibility is called into question.

Just post a picture...or know your not the principled guy "who didnt care" nor the guy "who couldn't figure out photo sizing" but instead you will be the guy that lied and flaked when called out. your kid deserves a better example to follow.

This of course assumes the kid is also not fictitious.
