500th post

Just so happens I bought my first Rolex a year ago today I believe. At the same time I found TRF. I happened by one of my favorite watch shops and left with a Sub C which was the start of my journey.

In any case I have enjoyed my year on this forum and all the insight that has come as a result of the great post. A very solid crowd here. Thx for the entertainment. Of course the down side is the enabling factor..... Do I really need that SS Daytona.

Congrats Joe, you have two great watches. I hit 500 posts this week as well, though I unfortunately neglected to mark it with a special post. Oh well, I will wait until 1000.

Keep the sub no matter what you do.
I've flipped about 5 subs so far
I picked up a subc date about 4 months ago and will NEVER flip it
Even for the the sd4000
