Rolex Forum fever

Once I purchased my first Rolex (LV) about a month ago, I thought the obsession on searching things Rolex and reading this forum would be quenched. I find myself reading this forum more often now then when I was researching and contemplating the purchase. My fever has caused me to use a LV as wallpaper on my workstation. I guess staring at my watch and checking the time every 5 minutes wasn't enough, now I am looking at it on my computer. Reading the threads on this forum makes me enjoy my purchase even more. Keep them coming.

Its funny Sinbad because I am the same way. I have wanted the submariner for so long, but when I got this LV, I didnt realize I would like it as much as I do.

Good for you, Sinbad. Nice watch by the way... I have an LV as well and it gets the lion's share of my wrist time.

I know exactly how you feel. I too have a Submariner picture consuming my computer desktop as well as the "50 Years of Submariner" screensaver from the Rolex website.
