In desperate need of Wisatrin™ (incoming...)
Ladies and gents, I have caught the bug in a really bad way. This one will be the second Rolex purchase in 2 weeks.
 I'm not sure if there is a cure for this sickness, only relief.This time I will wait until I have access to a proper camera for the unveiling. Thanks to all the enablers on the forum

 Love the title of this thread...is it over-the-counter, or prescription only?

As I have told Goose on the SWAG thread, Wisatrin does not work!
I'm not even going to ask for clues  Congratulations!

No hints, sorry!
boogiebot, I wouldn't hold your breath for stellar shots! Anything is better than my blackberry camera, so I will borrow the first available digital camera and try to have pics up by Sunday. I should be receiving it Saturday, so waiting an extra day to open the package will feel like eternity but will make the experience even more fun for me! |

I believe the prescription you are in need of is WISium or WISzak.

Finally got home from a long day out and just took the first photographs ever with my new camera! I just wanted to preface my following post by saying that I snapped the photos on default settings in less than ideal lighting conditions, but they look better than my cell phone ever could. I really look forward to learning the ins and outs of this little camera.
Now without further ado... |

Ahhhh, the FedEx Large Box, gotta love it!
 Protected from the outside world, this Medium Box stood guard.  Like chainmail, this flexible Padded Pak serves as the last line of defense.  The glorious coronet there to greet me.  Getting closer...  One can never have enough polishing cloths.  Who turned out the lights? It's really dark in here!

The full length Oyster bracelet makes my 7.4 inch wrist feel dainty. Cant wait to have a few links taken out so I can actually wear it!
 My happy little Rolex family in chronological order from left to right.
