OMG I will never buy another Rolex !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok folks who is the wise guy? This is not a bit funny!!

My wife comes home and she immediately wants to wear the new SD. Her comments were actually:

"I like this one" as she puts it on.

"This is waterproof, right" As she jingles it around on her small wrist.

"How many links can be taken out?"

So which did one of you prompt this? Greg? David? Nick? who?

She had that s**t eating grin on her face the whole time.

I may quit buying for a while and start selling!!

Sincerely

Mike

Same sh*t happened to me when I bought "my" breitling colt and "my" doxa sub 1200T....

"oh, this one's nice, I like this one", and that's that.....

At least I've gotten a WR out of her....

Things are easier in two's

I bought my first Exp. II (white face) and greased the entire transaction by buying her one too (black face - which she loves)!! Now, what do I do about the 16170 Pepsi I just bought from DavidSW?

Sea-Dweller is a manly choice, I like her taste in watches. At least she lets you buy Rolex, or maybe demands it!

Mike, I think you need to change your signature and move the SD from his to hers.

You are one lucky man! I offered to give my girlfriend, that I'm about to propose to, my only rolex and told her I'm just going to buy a sub or SD. She said, "what am I going to do with such an expensive watch and thank you but NO." Now, that's why I'm selling mine. To keep her happy and get the watch I want. My little rant it over now.

ps. I'm really jealous right now

She can't/won't wear anything bigger than her Mid Size YM. :-)
