Love the board,and it's members!! Anyway I own an LV and have always been an admirerer of Rolex... I own a few watches..... I love quality things, not necessarily materialistic but just nice value pieces...

I have a Seiko Monster, a Hamilton Jazz master , the ROlex LV and planning on getting the BAUME et Mercier capeland S COSC Chrono.......

I look forward to sharing, learning and just kickin it with you all...

It is so funny, most people think my watch is a fake because they claim and swear ROLEX does not make a green Bezel insert! I love it alteast I know my arm won't be chopped off!!

Thanks for checkin out my post and I will be among u soon!!!

Hey Giovanni. Welcome to TRF.

Nice stuff you have there. Which monster do you have? I have the black one, and there are a few others with them as well. I know we have a member (comatox) with a Jazz master also. Hoew about some pics?

Hope you can stick around and join the fun.

GIOVANNIOrangeCounty · 27 July 2006, 07:03 PM

Hey, thanks Mailman.....

Yes, I too have the black one... I got a buddy who like to buy crappy lesser quality watches and replace them every 3 months or so.... So, for his birthday after we took em to TGIF for some Jack Daniels goodies' I figured HEY!! LETS LOOK AT WATCHES (@ the Block of ORange, California.)

Anyway inside of Watchworks were two Monsters, one Black and the other was the elusive Orange! Then I proceeded with my sappy selling skills and went to work and got both watches OTD for 460.00!! I as pretty stoked and being as humble as I am I gave "NACHO" the Orange one, he is Mexican too

So I figured he'd like the Orange color (even though as I had him choose which one he wanted I STILL wanted the ORANGE one for myself...

Needless to say that beast of a watch has never left his wrist and will probably last him his lifetime!! Thank god there are not any batteries to be changed!!!! LOL!

I will get some pics up no doubt.... I work a tad bit too much 80hrs a week

Talk to yo later!

Welcome to TRF Giovanni, it's great to have you along. Join in the fun whenever you have time.

GIOVANNIOrangeCounty · 27 July 2006, 07:34 PM

Hey thanks Uncle-AJ and u too PADI...

I only sport automatics myself... I don't know, call me crazy but I don't really care for quartz "tickers." I love the LV, even though the green is a little blingy.. I only WISH Rolex would make a Brown Bezel insert only because I like to wear brown suits, shirts and the green looks a little weird with brown. I still don't care as I wear it with anything and wear it anywhere I go!

I have somewhat of a physical job so I really am so careful not to scratch it, I don't know though, maybe I should have grabbed the scratch proof metal SUB they had at the AD

Oh well, I love that darn watch and its funny because I guess being under 30 in my area of insipid debutants and frappachino holding douche-bags people look at me weird due to the fact I wear a ROllie!!??!@#$

This forum is a great place, I think I have learned so much from lurking around and I myself am glad I decided to join!

j/k!!

GIOVANNIOrangeCounty · 27 July 2006, 07:39 PM

Oh, Almost forgot, and I am being totally sincere (one word!)

If my sig offends even one person I will remove it. I love Sam Kinison and he IMHO was the best comic that ever lived. He is a little dark, not Charlie Murphy dark but rather dark in taste and comedic preference... I just wanted to go on record that I have a conscious (that the write wurd?_)

and I wish not to offend anyone while I am here.....

In case if any of you were wondering my AVATAR is of AZraEL, the Angel of death.. BOO!

Well myself have not a problem with it,but it could offend some. We try and keep anything,politics and religion off the forum,so perhaps the demorcratic thing to do is change it,for the sake of the forum .

Let me add my welcome to TRF, Giovanni. Glad you stopped lurking and came out of the closet to join our merry madhouse.

A word of advice. I hate orange watches. If you don't want to be banned permanently, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT, post pics of any Orange Monsters.

As for the sig, I'm not offended by it, but others could be. It might be a good idea to keep religion and politics out of it.

I'm pretty new here as well but a big welcome just the same.
Don't have an issue with the sig, but as others have said there are guys who may...
I think it was very cool and thoughtful of you to ask.

hahahha~~!!!!

Earl, are you Italian????

Anyway thanks for the warm welcome... The funny thing about me is this: I cannot keep track of two things throughout my life thus far......

1.) PENS and PENCILS I always LOSE them (okay that's already two!)

2.) Cameras!! I always misplace them or break them....

3.) ahh, forgot one Iguess : Shades!!! I always leave them on seats and sit on them!!

Thank GOD my trusty ROlex has been through the gates of Mordor already and hasn't even dinged !!! I do have some hairline scratches on the clasp!

I can't believe paper of all things scratch!!
