... by the way, if the entire thread turns out to be a spoof let me say now that I never bought into it.

What would make you think this is a spoof?

I'm with you. I'll actually be surprised to see photos of these watches later today if it happens. Nonetheless, it's been an interesting thread to follow!

For me it's the actual lack of the physical watches and the overabundance of build up.

Along with the incendiary "Millionaire" thread I am beginning to wonder if you are just yanking our chain.

Haha, just a little nudge. I won't lie, I'd love to see you actually pull the trigger on this great deal. I'd be very jealous!


It has just dragged on for so long, I have my doubts. If it were me, I would have gotten the Daytona and GV last week. If I did decide to wait and pick up all three together, I would have ran there yesterday as soon as I heard the DSSD was in. Maybe you are much more patient than me, but you don't seem very eager to collect your new watches.

My patience maybe a result of my 51 years of age. Guess I'm not an impetuous youth. I wanted to make sure that the DSSD was coming as quickly as promised. I didn't want to pay for all three, and then wait on end for the DSSD to show up, or have it sold out from under me (like the first one was). By waiting for all three, the AD had an incentive to make sure the DSSD showed up ASAP.

I am eager to collect them. It will happen today, if all things work out, which I expect they will.

When I was younger, I would be sleepless waiting to buy the next new thing. But patience, like body fat, seems to devleop as one ages. Just like tremendous sexual ability and performance. LOL

Well, once you pick up these three, you can always try and find another AD willing to give you a great deal on three different models and start a new thread:

So A Man Walks Into ANOTHER AD, ...

I have a meeting at 1:30 then I'll head up. Got to do some other shopping, and not sure I want to have all three with me when I am running around to other stores.

LMAO, I got meeting, I gotta change a diaper, piano lessons, wifes making dinner............... its all BS there are no watches............ comon dude you've been jacking us all off for quite awhile here. Listen I'm not being rude, I did say sorry for being so harsh, its really just a bit of ribbing. But no WIS is gonna go on and on with excuses. You either buy the stuff or not and its obvious your not. No big deal and quite entertaining actually.

I'm sure nylawbiz is simply in shock that he is about to drop 20K and is debating inside his head whether he should buy or not. My advice, do it if you can afford to do it (which clearly you can based on the fact that the voice of reason/wife said it's cool). This is a great deal on sick watches.

Why do I keep looking at this thread... this explains traffic when the wreck is on the other side of the road! Best of luck to the OP.

I say he returns with a Citizen day/date, a Seiko diver, and a Invicta speedway.
