JJ, I started to respond to an earlier thread, and referenced then new to be, ready to flip watch as Platty. I held back as I didn't want to be branded a nut. But your not a nut, just passionate about your Rolex.

Come on JJ, it´s better we call all your watches Flippy.

This poll will not have a fair chance to end before your YM
is on the way out of your house.

Temporary, meaning it won't last long.

I like Yachtsie.

It is a shame that the Exp. II is gone, but I always liked the SS/Plat. YM, and actually was planning on getting one until I saw the white Exp. II in the case, and had that "gotta have it" reaction.

Congrats on the new Rolex JJ! As I recall, Mrs. JJ has YM, so will new YM be moving in on Bluesey's gal?
