It's been a while but I am back and I bought another one!!
Hello everyone,
As some of you have known I have been very sick and fighting not only the tumor some of you guys know I have been batteling, but I suffered a TIA back in the begining of Febuary. Then I had the full on stroke on the second week of March 2014. So I haven't really posted since I bought my 16233 with champagne tapestry dial. This makes (14) TT DJ's, 1 AK with salmon 369 arabic numerals and engine turned bezel, 1 TT 1505 34mm Date w/ silver/oyster dial w/ gold baton hour markers, (1) 18948 tri, (1) 18946, (1) 16613 blue, (1) 16610. (2) 16233 (both champagne dials. One regular the other tapestry) Now I just purchased another 16013 with a silver/oyster diamond dial from a guy who sells New (Grey Market) Rolex watches as well as pre owned. The watch is in excelent condition and comes with the box, papers, books, and hang tags. So I am very excited about my new purchase. I'm also glad to be back here on TRF. I often get accused by people for being a show off, and wanting attention because of my passion for the Rolex brand. At least I know I can come here and chat with others who have the same passion for the brand as I go. So, it's good to be feeling well enought fo be back and I look forward to sharing the pictures of my newest addition to my family one the watch arrives. |

That is true .... I know what I like .... I found it amusing to know that someone was making fun of me not to long ago by saying I own the cheapest model rolex around .... I just laughed and left it at that ... As long as my DJ"S make me happy
