Hi, Natalie and welcome to TRF.

Glad you found us. Now how about more than just one little Happy New Year post. Tell us a little about yourself. What kind of watch(s) do you have? What got you interested?

Stick around and become part of the family.

You know you guys would have heard about it if I had. LOL Paying full price just isn't an option, so we've been shopping around trying to find the best watch at the best price from a safe seller. We're considering a lightly-worn '04 from a forummate, but he's firm at $4,750 -- which is a very fair price. However, when I compare it to an unworn '06 from a reputable seller on ebay for $5,300 it doesn't seem that great. Especially when the '04 is more than 1/2 way into needing its' $500 5 year service. Seems like a no brainer, right? Well, my DH hates to part with money -- even for a Rolex. And he sees a $550 savings. I think it's stupid to worry about $550 when you are already spending thousands. On the other hand, we never set out expecting to buy a $5,000 watch. Maybe it's just too extravagant. But boy am I hooked on this watch!

Sorry, Natalie! I didn't mean to hijack your post!

Don't ever be sorry about hijacking a thread around here, Melissa. It's actually a rite of passage when you start hijacking. You know you're no longer a newbie when you do that. So feel free to hijack away.
