New Member....greetings!

Hello Everyone,

I've been a longtime luxury watch collector and within the past year, I started watchmaking as a hobby. My only Gen Rolex until today was the 1601 DateJust but of course I owned about 15 of the "Chinese so called best replicas" as well. Since I am so forthcoming with info, no, the replicas just didn't do it for me and lacked, well, everything! LOL. I was on the hunt for a Sub LV Hulk but ended up with the Oyster 34 in Blue. Since I have smaller wrists, this one will suit me much better:) I'm very excited to participate and literally discuss watches!

Am I allowed to post a link to my G+ profile here? (no ads or sales, just for fun)

Thanks guys! LOL, it's only been a year but I replied!!! haha

Up to three Rolex's now and it amazes me as just about a decade ago, I never thought I would own one let alone three! Out of hundreds of watches in my collection, the Hulk is my favorite, the 2016 Oyster is second and all of them are third;)

Thanks lol...all good mate;)

For some reason, all my posts are disappearing saying that is awaiting approval when pressing submit post? (one new thread and two replies) I've seen brand new members post and mine have not been "cleared" yet I can post here? Are they being rejected for asking a question about my Hulk and replying to people's threads? Not sure why it is punishing me today:/

Well I see that my comment was approved but my question was deleted, which was posted well before the comment. Sorry but if this is the way things work around here, I'll find another site with knowledgeable Rolex fans. Do I get a reason for this deletion? I love how things can disappear just because I am new and have no reasons nor proof that I even posted! A better system needs to be put in place

Thanks again to the awesome members out there but please deactivate my account as I would no longer like to be part of this forum. I spent more time here just trying figure out what went wrong with my question all over an attempt to obtain a simple answer for what? So I could be concerned about a seal in my Hulk? I decided to open it and it's a gen...seal has been regreased and case resealed. Thanks for nothing mods!
