Good Day at the Market

Well, today was a good day trading and I'm contemplating getting a Sub no date. Although, like many here, I do not need another watch. So, what say you. A Crown for this achievement? (Background note - I purchased two watches over the last month).

Two in the past month? Pass. Enjoy what you have now. When you need to scratch that itch down the road, the ND subs will be there for you.

Maybe wait until tax time when people need to free up some spare cash?

Well if you buy a Rolex each time you have a good day, the balance won't get reinvested unless you're buying rare ones that could appreciate.

I'd buy it now if you can as prices will only go up. If you don't like it, you can always recover your costs later.

Two Watches?!?! I have bought a few more over the past few months, including a DJ and a Omega Seamaster...so yes, why not look for that Grail now...especially as you have a bit of extra cash. I do agree, enjoy what you buy, but if something crosses your path-grab it!!

It depends how much you made trading. I would do it if the cost would be around 20% of what I made.

You just want to hear us tell you to do it so you can blame us later. I don't care, do it and blame me later. Just make sure you post up some pics.

Just do it. The money might be gone with one day of bad trading.

Some great advice here everyone. I do appreciate it. Gonna hold off on the watch as I really dont need it, although it would be nice to rotate 3 watches weekly. Also, the Sub no date, with Lug Holes has been absent from TRF Classified recently.

- BAH covers mortgage, always has, always will (thats what its for).

I've given it some thought, and think you should get the sub.
