Icon20 Hello from the Philippines

Hi to all members, moderators, administrators and everybody out there.
I am from Metro Manila, Phils. I hope there are also other from the Phils. in TRF.
I been lurking around for quite awhile so I decide to make my first post. Hope you guys and gals will guide me as a beginner here.
I love collecting watches even at a young age, I have bought and sold quite a numbers of watches before.
Some of the watches I have sold before were: ROLEX SG YATCH-MASTER, ROLEX EXPLORER II(WHITE DIAL), TUDOR HYDRONAUT, TUDOR SS DAY-DATE, OMEGA SEAMASTER, OMEGA SPEEDMASTER( YELLOW DIAL), BREITLING SUPER OCEAN, TAG HEUER SERIES 2000.
My present collections: ROLEX DJ TT, AP ROYAL OAK OFFSHORE NAVY, JAEGER LECOULTRE AMVOX II, GP FERRARI CHRONO, TISSOT SEASTAR DAY-DATE, RAYMOND WEIL, CIRCA 70 RADO and SEIKOS.
And my latest acquisition ROLEX 11620 DAYTONA BLACK DIAL.

1) Go to www.photobucket.com and create an account (it's FREE!)
2) Upload the pic to photobucket from your PC
3) When it's uploaded, copy the IMG code (BOTTOM bar under the photo in photobucket - there are four bars, but you'd wanna use the LAST bar - see my arrow on the Print Screen underneath). You copy the IMG code by simply clicking on the bar:



4) You then note that photobucket tells you "copied".
5) Then go to rolexforums and start your post.
6) In your post, press the "Add picture" button and a prompt pops up with http://. Delete that http:// and press CTRL + V (now that address of the photo - the "IMG tag" - is inserted in the prompt you got.
7) Then DELETE the last and first [IMG] to get rid of "IMG" standing before and after your photo when you post it. (not important, but just looks better).

Or you can skip # 6 & 7 and just rightclick in your post and choose "paste"...........BINGO your photo will be there as soon as you press Submit reply.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT DELETE THE PICTURE FROM PHOTOBUCKET (OR ANY SERVER YOU USE) SINCE DELETING IT THERE WOULD ALSO DELETE IT HERE ON TRF! (RED CROSS INSTEAD OF PIC).

That's it!

You are right. There are at least 20 Rolex AD in Metro Manila alone. I got my Rolex Daytona SS Black Dial from an AD just more than a week ago.

Here are some photos:

Actually Erwin, you were half correct. My brother bought one last Jan. at Washington Shangri-la Plaza Mall in Edsa. I bought mine this Feb. at Washington Harrison Plaza. But for the prices you guess it right.
