Thanks!

Hey, thanks... This is a web 1.0 website I started back in 2000 (or so) on AOL when I need a place to store watch pictures to post on forums. At the time, there was no photobucket. I moved it to its own domain in the mid-2000's and I add to it as I experience more watch related events. I have considered moving it to a Web 2.0-like site, but never really felt the need. The website is not a business and I have turned down online advertising. The website is my token contribution back to the watch community and forums such as this one where I have learn something new each time I take a gander.

Thanks for the mention...

-Sheldon

Thanks for keeping such a great site, Sheldon! I heard Jake Ehrlich's podcast interview with you from back in 2009. Good stuff!

Thanks all!

Yes, have not had too much time to update the site, but as I come across things, I do post them there. Have a few more broken Rolex picts coming, as well as a pre-Daytona servicing that I have to post.

I do monitor TRF and will let everyone know when I have new content on the site.

In regards to the first question, I would use -4/+6 in the URL, but internet address cannot use symbols...

-Sheldon

Great site Sheldon, didn't know that you were a member here. I visited your site often when researching my first Rolex purchase.
I love the "Ouch, tough and broken Rolex" section!
