I can't believe I came into this forum one month ago to research a new submariner for my 50th birthday… Which I am finally able to complete the purchase on Monday

And in that interim time, 250 posts, and I don't know how many man hours later, I have now managed to purchase three watches before my sub. This is a sickness

Don't forget to post pics when your new baby arrives!!

dddrees · 16 March 2013, 10:28 AM

Only 4 watches, geez guys I think we're losing it.

We used to be so much more influential.
