Icon3 How long until JJ gets a TT Daytona?

When will JJ get his TT Daytona (or is it now TT Yacht-Master)?

My new TT Daytona

Hi Peter,

Now don't get me started on that! You know that 2007 is still a long way off....but who knows? With me, anything's possible.

Hey, it's great to see you here. Hope more of our old friends join this forum.

Seems like a pretty nice, organised place.

JJ

LOL - VERY OLD is an understatement! I've told some of these nice folks to please take a look at the dates on the initial thread post. Some people wonder why graphics and other links don't show up - it's because the files are no longer online, the links are dead, or the member is...

I was aware of the date and brought it back to life as JJ is far from dead and he now owns a YM as prophesied so many years ago.

Icon3 hey fellows

Hey fellows, JJ will get a YM and a Daytona someday in the right time I think. I will live happily with my GMT ll and EXP ll (yet to be obtained) as I must have the red 24 hour hand. Even though I wish such hand were on all the rolex line, to do so would kill a niche that gives them a market, and that would not be good for them.

Anyway, this is my first post on this list.

I say he gets a TT Yachtie when he hears odd noises coming from his underwear drawer and opens it up in time to catch Mr. Sea Dweller acosting Mr. TT Sub (that SD thinks he's a tough guy ).

JJ, in a mad rush to his beloved TT Sub's defence , grabs Mr. Tough Guy and takes him straight to Mansour's and does the deed right then and there .

And then JJ'll say "honest guys, this one's a keeper ... I'll NEVER part with this one." That is, however, until Mr. TT Sub gets too big for his britches and tries something funky with Ms. Ladies TT Yachty.

I wouldn't doubt that this whole experience pisses JJ off so much it will "speed up" his new, additional acquisition out of spite and anger!

JJ had a TT yachtie before. And the Daytona has no date so he wont go for that. I say neither and say he will get the TT GMTc next.

We are not exactly sure when the thread was started.

We await the carbon dating results.
