Once upon a time, when many of you were still in diapers, there was another Rolex Forum with a similar sounding name.

They were a proper bunch of snobs and banned a couple dozen of us.

So, we started our own Forum..

Hope that all of you like it!!

More like obsessed with it. I only own two watches but since reading this forum I see how woefully inadequate that is.

I wonder what a web forum would cost? Maybe ~$200 for domain and forum license? $60-100 for categories and setup? A little extra for add ons. $10 per month for small forum hosting. $50+ for larger forums. I agree that it would take a group of cool kids to take on a challenge like that.
