Can't blame you. The Milgauss is a very interesting model, too.
What do you think about the new DSSD?

the wife's watch
we'll never forget our trip to Vegas for many reasons, the biggest of course is that we got married but coming a close second is just how lucky the wife was at gambling first night there and she wins $1,100 in 30 minutes on a slot machine, then a couple of days later she dropped the jackpot on a 1c machine of $1,000 and she finished the week off in style.... we had finished walking around on our last night and decided to head off to bed, as we passsed the last roulette table, she stops and puts our final $25 on black, it comes up black, she lets it ride and it comes up black again...she takes this off and puts $25 on her birthday number 5 and it drops in ...she's walking to the cage with $1,000 again!!! it made our holiday as we're not rich by any means.... and this was all at The Belagio Anyway, two very happy people coming back, both with a Rolex to remember our time in that crazy place |

Welcome to the forum. Good to see another Scot on here too.
Thats a lovely looking SD, and like you say you'll soon get the bug for more being on here. I'm pretty new on here too and already want an Anniversary Sub, Daytona and a Milgauss. |

I really want a Daytona too, I've just been offered one at a very good price but just can't afford it at the moment... I know i'll lose the watch, but that's life I guess |

Great story and great watches. Now if you want to see a hair arm, just go searching for some of JJ's wrist shots. Glad to have you here. You seem to have good humor.
