Otto · 7 June 2005, 10:21 PM

Hello everyone. My name is Otto and I'm an American living in the Tokyo metro area. JJ pointed me to this forum and I'm glad to be here. I have been buying and trading Rolex watches for my own personal use for over 13 years now, and, if anything, my love of these watches has grown even stronger every year. I recently bought a new TT slate dial Daytona that I'm really enjoying at the moment. It's been beating out my SS Daytona for wrist time the last three weeks.

Best regards,
Otto

Uncle-AJ · 7 June 2005, 10:38 PM

Welcome Otto, it's nice to have some new blood around here. If you are a friend of JJ's we will treat you with some suspicion.

I hope you enjoy your stay, if you have a sense of humour you will be OK.

Gedanken · 7 June 2005, 11:11 PM

Welcome, Otto! I think I remember you from TURF.

Rockrolex · 8 June 2005, 12:46 AM

Welcome aboard, Otto. Nice to have you here, even if you are a friend of JJ's. We'll overlook that for now, but you're treading on thin ice here.

Earl · 8 June 2005, 02:25 AM

Otto, what's up my man!! You can't avoid me I am everywhere, LOL!!

Glad you found this joint and hang out and enjoy the company.

JJ Irani · 8 June 2005, 04:51 AM

Welcome aboard, Otto, fun times are here again!!

Thought you guys haven't seen enough of my favourite baby, so here goes....LOL!

dman · 8 June 2005, 04:55 AM

Listen up, Daren, a word of advice. SD is now desperate for a little loving and is NOT getting it from any quarter. So if you show me Bart's backside one more time, you know where SD will land up!!

dman · 8 June 2005, 05:02 AM

I will PM you my address and you can ship it to me. After that I am sure I can find a loving wrist for that bad boy. Since I also have an F SD, I don't need it, but it would go along ways towards, I don't know, say a UN Big Date +/- GMT.

Hey Ed, if that happens this time make sure the powers that be know that JJ and I are not a package deal. I really don't even know him, just bumped into him once or twice on the net. LOL!!

It just proves the old adage: Behind every silver lining is a black cloud. Oh wait a minute. Is it the other way around. . . . Oh well, you get the point.

Earl · 8 June 2005, 11:33 AM

JJ Irani · 8 June 2005, 05:16 PM

Hey Mark,

You have no idea what the mice have been doing while the cat's been away!!

JJ

Earl · 8 June 2005, 07:27 PM

Mark rest asure the mice he's refering to are non other then himself, to big to be stopped by any common mouse trap so, we had to resort to more sofistacated means of getting him to nibble at posting. I think we have caught him now.

dman · 8 June 2005, 10:17 PM

LOL Earl!! I hope we did!!
