My hat trick and many thanks

Thanks to TRF, I've become an addict and bought 3 Rolexes this year. This will probably be it for me as my wallet can only handle so much. Got the Sub first on 4/1. Got the GMT on 8/1. Got the DJ on 9/25. While this collection is small compared to many TRF'ers here, I'm very proud of it. Thank You, TRF members, for all of the advice given to me over the years, and DavidSW who sold me the GMT. TRF has one of the nicest group of enthusiasts I've ever encountered.

Great trio! You pretty much have all occasions covered!

I seriously don't think you'll be stopping at three. Keep us posted on what 2010 brings

You're right! I probably shouldn't count my wife's DJ as my own. That means I'll need to fill the void with something. I'm thinking Daytona... oh right, I'm supposed to stop!!
