New Member - Jumping In w/ first post.
Hello TRF,
...I began my Rolex ownership experience just 3 weeks ago (TT DJ)...and for several nights in a row, though satisfied - I craved more...kinda like after the first bite of the proverbial apple. So I did it. I bought a second one (SD). And to justify it with the wife, I brought one home to her too (Lady DJ pics, later). The sickness is real and VERY scary...Enjoy. |

Welcome aboard and congratulations on your watches.
They are very fine specimens. We are a group of enablers here and it's really tough on those of us who cannot or will not flip or trade pieces. You have been warned.

You are indeed sick. And, like us, we realize there is NO CURE. Welcome!

I don't know that I would call it impossible, however I would call it never ending. But loads of fun.
Congrats and Welcome. Smiling is easy, just look at your wrist.

It's not how long he stays here, it's how well he keeps away from the enablers!
