Thanks all,
was surprised how well my mobile phone captured it, but with such a beautiful subject...

It was quite a journey for me getting this watch..

Running fast by <1 seconds/24h. Now i am impressed. I first wanted a Rolex 26 years ago as a teenager growing up in Canada. Now here i am over a quarter of a century later all grown up back in my home town in the UK with a grown up family of my own and my wish has come true. This watch makes me feel good and i think that's what a Rolex is meant to do.

How long should a watch like this last? Anybody know? I like to think "A hundred years" (thats what i told my wife) but she didnt really care, it made me happy and that was enough for her. I am blessed with a good wife/i picked well eh?

The pictures are the same and this raises some serious questions which I would like answered.

OP: I would like you to PM me an explanation as to why you have done this and as a result I am also requesting action from you concerning your FS listings. I am sending you a PM also.

This thread is being closed until I hear back.
