I just want to ad that Rikki is the only one who was able to assert my problem with my quarter century club Rolex, 1949 which is really valuable and rare on top so welcome and hope we can meet soon because I am in the same area,

I do need a pair of handcuffs
Dentists are good, especially when you don't need to have them do work on you Kind of like us lawyers.

I contacted Rik early last month...
...and after speaking a 'lil bit that day, sent him one of my pieces.
"He said what he'd do", and "did what he said". I'm very pleased, and said so in the "Who's Who" section last month. Real nice to have another,tho ROLEX recognized & qualified, member on TRF. We'll do business again. Best Regards "to you "TECHNO Rik! |
