There was a young man from Verona
He was poor and a bit of a loner
A rich girl he met
And it got better yet
When she bought him a Rolex Daytona

Something you should know about Strauss
Is the magnet he had in his house
which stretched door to door
and covered the floor
So that's why Strauss wore a Milgauss!

I cannot afford a Daytona
And don't want to sound like a moaner
My new Rolex Date
Is great so I'll wait
And just be a Rolex Date owner!

There once was a Commie named Che,
Who sported a Pepsi, wha hey!
It did him no good,
This Marxist styled hood,
His Rolex...Well, taken away.

There was a young man from Nantucket
His Rolex fell into a bucket
The crown was unscrewed
I hate to be crude
But he jumped up and down and said F#%K IT!

A man with a watch had a question

Some of us thought he was jesting

The answers he sought, to the cause of his fraught

Were as dumb as the original question

The Rolex now sits in it's box... Resting!

A post got confused in translation

Which led to a MOD instigation

The ruckuss it caused,

Drew up cries from the hoards

The true culpit was Rolex fixation.

Rolex colors are green and gold
tell me time and make me feel old
Old like a milgauss with a price
to get you aroused.
Green and gold maybe some more
look around is quarter to four
But old man Wilsdorf had the wisdom
to set the watch for seven thirty
and all I get is something dirty....in my suede pouch...

In Melbourne, an experimenting chap
Put his blue sub on a NATO strap
When questioned "Why thus?"
He said "Why the fuss?
JJ's too far to cause me mishap!"

Thank you to everyone who entered and there were so many more whose limericks were worthy of being awarded a pouch.

Thank you DAVIDSW for his kind support in partly contributing to this giveaway.

If you were not lucky enough to receive a pouch, please do not despair as there are still a lot of opportunities in the soon to be forthcoming giveaways.

I appreciate everyones efforts and this was a lot of fun

The winners will need to send me by PM their postal names and addresses (which will remain private) for dispatch of the pouches.

There once was a man named REX,
Who met a woman with rough hands and had SEX,
They fell so much in love,
He bought her some gloves,
And she bought him his very first ROLEX.

couldn't resist adding, even thought late.

Just one more for the Boss.

There was a young Wissy called Steve
Who wore a GV up his sleeve
The dial it was was brown - at this he would frown
But he sorted this out I believe


Having won a Rolex pouch with a 'Rolex & food pix' I resisted the urge to post a limerick in this comp.

Well done to the winners - there were some great entries.

'Til now I never did know it
But I guess I'm a bit of a poet
For this I can vouch
'Cos I've just won a pouch
When it comes I'll take pictures and show it!

Many thanks. PM on it's way.
