No more Rolex for me!
It has been a pleasure to be an active member of this forum, I have owned a multitude of Rolex and Omega watches since I was 16, they have brought me an enormous amount of pleasure. Now I am sporting a Seiko SBBN017.
Unfortunately they have all had to be sold in order to fund a house purchase. Thanks for the memories, the banter and the great advice, I shall pop back from time to time, but thanks for having me!

Good luck! House is probably a priority over watches... hate to admit it.

Awww...you'll be back! Rehab is how you leave TRF, not buy JUST selling off the collection...

Since your Rolex investments paid off to fund your house purchase, I think you should continue to buy and enjoy wearing one and think of it as a down payment on your next acquisition ! At least that is the logic you could tell yourself so you could get another one : - )
Otherwise, enjoy your new home and come back soon ! |

You'll be back :) Perhaps you'll stumble on a nice vintage Rolex for the right price within your budget..
Congrats on the house. I had considered selling my watch when I bought my house but decided to hang onto it and save a little longer. |

  I must agree with you though, I lurked and posted on this forum for about five months before buying my first Rolex and it was a lot of fun! Besides, since you gave us the wonderful news of your house purchase we'd love to get some updates! Congratulations!
