What's the matter with me? Am I crazy?
I have owned 4 Rolexes in the past" 16233 Datejust,114270 Explorer 1. 14060M and 16610 and also 4 Marcelo Nettuno 3 Sub homages.
I have sold every one within a year. Dont ask me why..I just have...and after recently selling my 166120 sub I knew I had made a bad decision. So after much pleading with my long sufffering wife she agreed to let me buy one more watch..and this definitely had to be the last one. I had to sign a contract promising never to sell this last Rolex on the threat of divorce!! What did I buy??? here it is a "V" SERIES COSC 14060m AS NEW I am over the moon.. What do you think? Am I crazy?? Knoffie |

Nothing wrong with buy and sell. We've all been there, done that.

Thanks Guys...I was feeling pretty stupid....and now I realise how close I was to never again having a Rolex on my wrist.
I'm pretty lucky really. This one is definitely a keeper. Knoffie |

Do not worry the madness is very wide spread. My daughter thinks I am crazy and maybe I am. I buy one watch and I am looking for the next before the new wears off of it. If I won the lottery it would not be pretty.

Beautiful watch, enjoy.

Great watch and good choice. Why would you ever flip this watch? Except to own an Explorer 42 of course. Lol
