bought my rolex oyster at 18

Mickyfin · 19 June 2013, 04:41 AM

I remember the day well, and always will. I was 29, and was working in Switzerland at the time, and visited Liechtenstein as it was quite close to where we were staying in Flumserberg.

A colleague of mine at the time was looking for a new Rolex, he had an old sub at the time. I went into an AD there with him, and we both purchased a SS Black Daytona. I had mine that day, but my colleague had to go back the following week for his.

Ya the whole AC thing was completely unexpected and crazy, I'm not a smoker but I went through a pack of newports at the table & had no voice & jitters the next day lol. I was trying to save up the previous few months for a rolex then boom. Seems like it just fell in my lap, and I only played black jack like 3 times prior. . . After I won I thought it would happen every time . . . . Complete opposite lost every time after that night lol
