Hello everyone, Thank you for coming to our meeting of support. My name is John as well. The reason for my message is I am about to relapse again. I've tried everything. Rehab, hypnosis, intense shock treatment, and nothing seems to help my addiction. I am not sure if I am in the right place or not as I know there are many enablers lurking about but I am hoping someone can talk me out of my next purchase. I must have a DLC watch!

You're going to be fine... You did not "cave" you just slipped. We know you have gone 4-months now so lets start the counter over and not buy another watch. OK?

Congrats on the new addition. Nice collection as well. Really like the Lange annual calendar.

Is the Zenith ultra thin with the red 8 a special edition of sort?

Keen eyes u got there, it's a swiss lion boutique edition. Red isn't my favourite colour but I just how they accent the dials on watches so sharply
