Sure. Indeed. As I mentioned, easy come, easy go. The meaningful threads on this forum or other Rolex forums are for those who when they obtain a Rolex, when they place a Rolex on their wrists for the very first time, that it actually is a special moment in their lives.
For those who buy and sell and post solid gold Rolex in multiples - lets face it - they are not special to them are they? If you have five gold Rolex, how do you miss one, or two?? Perhaps not. Sure we love to see them and wish we could afford a $150K collection of gold Rolex, and maybe we come to this forum to live, read and view those Rolex, but realistically, we are casting baseless compliments.
Again, not on the Grinch sled, however we are lovingly applauding the owners, the millions of owners of the simple, lowly stainless Rolex, those persons where / when the watch on your wrist is worth more than the value of the watch, the experience, the history, the accuracy, the pedigree, and gold or platinum or stainless, that silly timepiece on your wrist actually means something, something which you are hard pressed to find words to express.
