Oh, that's lame.

You are going to have to do MUCH better than that if you want to move up in the rarified atmosphere of the Tosser High Command.

Allan and I are currently in negotiations about that. We may end up with a dual CEOship. That's one possibility.

In the meantime, get back to your sheep and let us sort this out.

But you are already calling him 'King'. That’s dangerously close to very, very high praise I hope you have a parachute

It's King Tosser. That's not praise, that's merely recognition of his title. One must respect the office, if not the holder of said office.

Try again, grasshopper.

I don't believe this...I just don't believe ALL of this.

In NZ or Australia, call someone a Tosser and he just might punch you in the nose. And here we have a bunch of guys vying for TOP SPOT!!

Glad we could be of assistance there, Justin! Bet with your recent posts, you will be probably be moving up the ladder very smartly. But watch that 7th rung - it has been known to break!

Most Expensive 1680

Well it's not something I can brag about..... but I probably have the most expensive plain white rolex 1680......... (NOTE I said expensive not most valuable :) :) :) ).....

My little ebay adventure landed me a nice clean 1680 with a FAKED red dial..... so here's the ugly math:

$5600 for fake red dial 1680
$200 shipping for authentication
$135 shipping to attempt to return to seller (he refused to take it back)
$225 for an authentic white dial
$385 for service & install correct white dial
-$1250 Paypal yanks this amount from sellers paypal act and sends to me :) (Still trying to get more)
So let's see... that's:

$5295 for a plain jane serviced white-submainer 1680 :)

NOW that is probably the most expensive 1680 in this here forum..... and well..... it's not really something to brag about :)
