It's Saturday morning, and I have to wait in for the man whose coming to mend my boiler, I'm bored, can't go down the shed as I won't hear the bell, I'm housebound. So, I decide to get all my Rolex watches out of the safe, set them to the correct time and photograph them ! I have photographed them with their names and reference numbers, along with corresponding boxes and papers, this is so my wife, should anything happen to me, know what's what, and can carry out my wishes.

Hope the boiler guy shows up soon, and that you and the Mrs. aren't too uncomfortable. Nice collection!

The gasman cometh

It would be great to get larger picks

Sounds like you’re waiting on the probate man

Wedders · 16 February 2019, 10:27 PM

I could’ve fixed it for you. Oops no I’ve retired now.

Thanks, that one is my favourite, I bought it new in 1981 at a cost of £450. All booklets, hang tags, guarantees are present, the only thing I can't find is the original purchase receipt, I don't know where that's gone.

Thanks, sorted now under guarantee, he wasn't here more than 10 minutes, something simple. Not cold at all, fire alight in front room, Aga in kitchen, toasty !

Reminds me of the scene in Dumb & Dumber when they are in the apartment when the “Gas Man” shows up... “Hey harry, did you pay the gas bill?!”

timeldn · 17 February 2019, 12:53 AM

Great collection

Get the electrician in there too so you can turn the lights on

Wow... outstanding. If you don't mind putting me in your will for it, I'm available.

Great collection overall. Definitely enjoy them.
