BYE and THANKS!

Fellas (and ladies),

Thank You so much for all the information and advice/tips re everything Rolex.....I have been on the Omega Discussion Board of this site (and another!) at the same time and have finally decided to go OMEGA - Planet Ocean to be exact...(just whch one????????)

No criticism of the Rolex brand just a personal asthetic choice IMHO.

Take Care All, Enjoy your Rolex.

B GOOD.

It's obviously your wrist and money. You should get whatever watch makes you happiest. Good luck.

That new PO is sweet. But no need to be a stranger on the Rolex threads.

Omega makes a great watch!

Good luck! I've always liked their product.
I love what I saw from them at Basel this year.
I just love my Rolex that much more though...
