Phantom Rolex Syndrome
Rikki has my watch and in 2 weeks I must have looked at my wrist 2000 times. Anyone else experience this phenomenon. It's supposed to be back this week thank God.

Surely you're not implying that you only own one watch?!

You can post your watchless wrist on WRUW thread if that helps on the wait!

Hate being without one. Wearing a watch almost 24/7 for years will do that

You're in the minority here if you've only got one timepiece to wear. There are plenty of folks here who cycle thru them based on the day of the week!
Ironically, I rarely sport any timepiece besides the daily in my sig.......

I know why you mean. I feel empty without my watch.

You need more than one watch for this exact reason!

The Return
Watch is back from Rik. Have not checked for accuracy yet. But the exterior looks suberb. Looks better than new and winds much quieter. There were two tiny places one from the factory on the case and case back. Completely gone now. Price was very good and workmanship was excellent. Took a little over 2 weeks (which was what Rik quoted me)to get it back.Will use Rikki from now on. if you need service do not hesitate to send it too Rikki Dietel. You will not be disappointed.....Jimmy
