Who ever said Marriage Sucks??
The name is Ray and I am BRAND NEW to the forum. I am also a newly wed who got the greatest wedding gift ever!!! My mother in law asked the wife what kind of gift to buy and she told her I had been looking at rolexes for months. Next thing I know, a SWEET Thunderbird flew onto my wrist.

AWESOME GIFT! I just recently got married myself, and my mother-in-law most definitely did NOT get me a Rolex!
Congrats on everything, and enjoy your new timepiece! |

On another note, My next project is finding an Authentic BOX to put my baby in. I need an inner and outer set. Preferably 68.00.01, 68.00.08, or 68.00.55. I believe these boxes were made on or before 1993. If you guys know somebody, hook me up!

Thanks everyone, I can see why this forum is so popular. It's like family in here. DPKong, good question man...but sorry, her sister is off the market lol. KARIS, that piece looks awesome on your arm! and PawnshopKiller, those pics do not give this watch its due, its beautiful in person, and the woman doesn't take chances, she bought it from an AD. I'm gonna snap a few more pictures (in the light this time), I will post shortly.

Well, I'd have to say that around 50% of Americans who are married feel marriage sucks...since that's the current divorce rate...LOL
Cool watch though!
