I can't believe that 10 years have passed since I joined TRF

Yes Sir...for ten years now I have been a part of this "here" (sic) Rolex Forum..

I consider my self lucky to have found Stevo's web site back in January 2008
Made tons of friends and lost 2 namely JJ and Steve ...may they rest in peace.

I have learned a lot by reading different sections of the forum
Made thousands of honest good deals with just 1 going bad...a small one
pretty good if you ask me.

Rolex collectors, traders, dealers, flippers, gurus, chasers, lovers are all
happy to be part of the Rolex Forums

I love Rolex watches and I am only interested and dedicated to this marque
Hopefully I will be around for my 20th member's anniversary so I can write
another note like this and tell you... how lucky we are to be members of TRF

Happy New Year to all of you good people I am happy to be your fellow member
Anastasios

Wow, time really flies when you grow older. I echo your sentiments. I love this forum and hope I am around in 10 years to learn even more about watches and, well, living the dream. Happy New Years to all and congrats to OP

Happy TRF anniversary! I'm a baby in comparison but I can see the appeal of sticking around.
