Why the hell do I love this forum so much?

Yes, guys and gals.....

You guys are the best friends one could ask for anywhere in the world.

I love the Americans, I love the Brits, I love the Europeans, I love the Asians and everyone else on Planet Earth.

All that we need on this forum is some laughter, love and sharing......and we do have so much of that!!

This is the best forum on the internet - end of story!!

A very Happy New Year to each and every one of you!!

JJ

Answer of your question in the topic is so easy cause here is the only place to share the pleasure of ROLEX ,any kind of watch,and any kind of nice style materials, and also a place of international friendship. All friends here understand each of their passions cause everybody loves ROLEX and nobody will not say that 'its better not to pay few thousand for a small silly metal watch here, unlike people in real life', nice topic, thanks for opening your ideas to us dear JJ.

This is a great forum and I agree with you JJ. I am on holiday in Barcelona with my wife and in three hours we will celebrate the New Year. I have known you for a short while but you are the best 'net friends around...So what do I do in those few hours before? I just had to log to wish you a Happy New Year (so there...it's not an addiction but just 'friendly duty'....!!!)

JJ,
I agree with you and everyone else, I am addicted to this forum. I look forward to the input, discussions, and photos everyone submits. It is so nice to have such an outstanding international forum. I find when I miss a day or two I feel like I am missing out. Everyone keep up the great work and Happy New Years to everyone. God Bless

JJ, I think it's the ladies!!

But seriously, the New Year arrives in approximately 5.5 hours, so Happy New Year everyone!

I love the international aspect of this forum. Could you imagine if we all met? We most likely would have a difficult time understanding each other! You all are the best!

Crazy is a lonely place to be. Nice to find some like minded Rolex nuts.

Happy New Year to all! Glad I found this place.

Same here! Not one day passes without me checking this forum! I can't stand it sometimes! I've arrived late to work numerous times since I fell in with this place, and you JJ, it wouldn't be the same without you! Lisa <-- --> Mireyna, with JJ in the middle!
