Addiction...Feeling the Thirst
Having recently bought a YG DJ and already owning a TT Blue Sub you would think I would be satisified. So why am I still looking at other Rolex for sale? Damn this, I need rehab.....or a better paid job

Same here...since I bought my first Rolex a GMTC in April I'm thinking watches all day long!!
Never had this problem with my Breitlings...I really got hooked after I bought my GMT and think there must be something special with that Rolex brand!! I can't stop looking and thinking about the 116610LV the green Sub looks just awesome and hope to buy one very soon. |

I just purchased my first rolex a TT DJ and now I'm looking at a SS Sub. I also might be in the market for a divorce lawyer. The wife just can't see spending that amount on a watch. But a kitchen renovation with all new appliances is ok in her book because it adds value to the house. She got her kitchen & I got my DJ. Now how do I get my Sub?

I've got the bug too, I got my 1st one a SS Sub in 1994 when I was 14 which I sold to my brother to fund my current TT Blue Sub.
I've now convinced myself that I ABSOLUTELY NEED a GMT IIc, 'RED' Sub and an IWC Big Pilot, does anyone have the lotto numbers for this weekend?! |

Me TOO!!... I was just wearing my sub and looked at the mirror and decided i need a white face watch. Something a bit more sparkly what did i immediately think of. Why a white faced Daytona! Did some net worth calculations and decided F*^& it i can afford it i'm going to try and finagle with my AD since i already bought a sub off of him if he will sell it to me at the standard discount he gave me for the sub. It's a shot in the dark but if he says yes i will jump. I'm even going to beg and say PLEASE give it to me at that price. This is dangerous..... Or wait for the new explorer II but i would like something a bit more dressy.

Me, too except now I'm wondering how much I'll enjoy the expense of doing maintenance on all of them! DOH! Lotsa $$$$$! That is what's making me think about down sizing again.

I think three Rolex watches will help the symptoms subside. When I have any less than that in my collection, I start to have mild tremors.

Well I bought my first Rolex in September, a TT DJII. In November I just had to have the LV Sub. Last week my AD had a private event and I fell in love with the green crystal Milgauss. So, since September I have purchased three Rolexes. I'm my AD's newest best friend. Yes, these watches are addictive.
