So I bought a new Sub yesterday http://rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=184478

Well today a guy 5 min from me posted a craigslist ad for a 14060.
Worn 10 times, all paperwork original ticket and so on. It was so clean I don't want to wear it. Crazy part is we went to a Rolex dealer here in Atlanta to do the deal for safety. The lady at the door was very nice and said no problem. She re printed the original sales receipt for me 5 mins later I started inspecting the watch and some mean hefty woman came up chewed us out and then made us leave the store. We explained to her my wifes ring came from there and 2 other Rolex watches. She did not care and tossed us out. I was SHOCKED. They just lost my business forever. I am drafting a letter this evening for the owner.

I could not contain myself on the watch

Congrats on the 14060!

Terrible choice by the sales staff with booting you guys out.

Definitely follow up with the letter.
Enjoy both Subs!!

Congtats. Maybe you need a daytona to better time if it was really a day apart.

sleddog · 8 July 2011, 09:39 AM

I have tried to order an extra Omega link from Jared in Kennesaw twice. Both times they failed to followed up in the quoted shipment time. When I called them asking where the link was no one knew what I was talking about. TWICE. Gave up on that. I called last week needing help with something else and needless to say I am still waiting on a call back. I will NEVER buy anything from them again.

Nice pair of subs. Congrats.

That was my justification to my wife. I said when they are 21 I will give each on them one. She told me I was full of ##$$.

Then how will you explain the new Explorer, the DSSD, and the Daytona, sure to come in due time???

I've been there w/ the wife, explaining why I had all these watches showing up. Better to beg for forgiveness than permission....I think.

YetiBiker · 10 July 2011, 07:52 AM

Wow Matt, they are beauties for sure, congrats!

That's a good point. I would rather beg for forgiveness.
I have to remember that, cause I'm screwed one day soon I think.

Nice pic ups Matt !!!!!
