2 Milestones: Major Incoming & 3000th Post
Another thousand posts flew by! This is a total coincidence, in fact I just realized this is actually post #3001, but it's close enough right? lol.
This is a huge incoming for me and a first ever precious metal. This is basically a watch that's as close to being a "grail" as possible. Meaning, I honestly never dreamt I'd be able to purchase and own it. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I want to thank everyone for the wealth of knowledge, support and entertainment TRF provides. A special thanks to the moderators who work endlessly and thanklessly to keep this place great and running 24/7/365. So my new watch is "in transit" at the moment. I'll keep you all updated of course, but it should be in hand within the next few hours. Just wanted to add a special thanks to Superdog (Seth) for some great conversation and guidance in making this move. This watch nut even offered to let me wear one of his watches for a week to see how I got along with it. Can't thank you enough bud! We'll share this incoming together as I know you'll be right behind with one of your own. |

Unfortunately i did have to move my beloved AP. But as I mentioned previously in another post... I will always be in awe of my ROO and love it to a certain extent, but it was almost like a summer fling, not the one you bring home to meet the parents. This incoming is a marriage material watch and Rolex just feels like being home to me. |

Funny, I had the same fling with AP, loved it but I couldn't wrap my head around having so much cash tied up in a SS watch, so I moved it to help me get to the WG sub, and yes Rolex feels like home for some reason. Can't wait for your incoming buddy.
