Just broken my rolex cherry

After months of agonising about buying my first rolex, fate intervened when my ad had just taken delivery of a black dial Daytona. it is now on my wrist, and by god its a good looking watch.

Hopefully now i can get my life back instead of trawlling through various watch websites. I nearly went for a tag but i am so glad i held out, and paid the extra for the rolex, love it!!

I'm not a prude, but that expression involving cherries irritates the hell out of me.

X2...there was another topic very similar recently and raised a stir. Not sure why this phrase is getting used in mixed company...

Congrats! I was originally debating between that and the blue faced YM... But think I've decided on the Daytona... T-minus a few weeks!
