Binge Buying; It's Official!
Since the end of January I've purchased seven Rolexes of which one was returned because the stem fell out and was cancelled because it was a fraud.

The list includes 1) 116000 OP no date, 2) 14060 Sub no date, 3) Tudor Lady Sub 96093 which my wife now wears and received for her birthday, 4) a 16570 with black face, and 5) which I received this afternoon and I'm currently wearing, a GMT Pepsi 16700. That's it; now that I'm officially an addict and binge buyer it's time to sober up and go on the wagon. Here are some pictures of the latest which is an E serial with a clasp date P7 and a 78360 band.

Not one month but since the end of January. Three months. Two were returned however so that makes it an uneven five. With my fathers old Bulova, my winders are full. (Yes I said the W word ).

Enabler; I must admit a certain fondness for the YMs (the ones that is); that would be an extravegence however.
