Hi guys,

My sister Nina was here in Auckland two years ago at which time she purchased a no-date Oyster Perpetual.

Well, she's back in town to spend six months with her only brother!!

Zack · 30 September 2007, 04:01 PM

I hope ya'll have a good time

I don't spend to much time with my family because I'm in the military, but when we get a chance to spend time together it's great.

That's fixable! Just have her model all of yours... several times a week until she gets #2!

Sure she doesn't need an account here so we can hear all the stories?!?!?!?

roadcarver · 30 September 2007, 11:01 PM

Awesome JJ. Nice to see that you and your sister are still keeping in touch. Now a days with a busy life, its hard to get together with family.

When we used to live in Manila, Philippines we always thought that being closer to our relatives in north america would give us a chance to see more of each other. Here we are in Canada, still the same, not being able to get together as much as we can.

Say hi to your younger sibling for me!

Good stuff JJ!

frostie · 30 September 2007, 11:19 PM

Have a great time JJ

Dan Pierce · 1 October 2007, 12:04 AM

Hello Nina! How have you been. JJ talks much about you. Very nice Rolex you have there.
Great to meet you,

LOL!!

I'm the type of guy who stays devoted to one brand. All my polos are only from NIKE....a fantastic shop exclusive to the brand in a mall very close to my home.

NIKE and ROLEX - awesome combo!!

CEG · 1 October 2007, 03:09 AM

(Post hijack !)

Talking of stores, Abercrombi & Fitch have just recently opened up in London.. Now to you Stateside guys it's prob just a brand which is dated or whatever, but to bods in the UK it's a big deal still !

The prices tho are literally 100% (especially at the current exchange rate) more than US

Good job I stocked up on 5th Ave in August whilst in NYC

jasonbellevue · 1 October 2007, 03:11 AM

Great stuff, JJ. Thanks for sharing your family with your other family!

Prince · 1 October 2007, 03:13 AM

Thanks, guys. She doesn't need the date and also doesn't like the "bubble" as she calls it!!

This is the very base model, but it's still a Rolex, right?

Tools · 1 October 2007, 03:23 AM

I like the looks of the smooth bezel and the oyster bracelet.

My wife doesn't like that combination because she wears a tennis bracelet on the same wrist..Only the Jubilee and fluted (or diamond) bezel for her.

Nice watch

Base model ? No such thing IMO - they are ROLEX, and all beautiful (even the clownmaster !) ................ it's just some are more beautiful to differing eyes
