WOW!!! can't believe all ...

the people I know here !!!!

Long time no see ( and read ) .... I'm glad to see some of my favorite Rolex pals again ... missed you all !!!

For those that don't know me ... I'm a crazy Austrian living in Whitby , Ontario, Canada . For those with a good memory .... VNRINGTACA should ring a few bells .....

I'm currently living with 2 rollie's ( Yachtie and Sub ) and a variety of other makes in the collection and can be counted on to change my watches as often as socks .... all too often if you ask the family and most of my friends !! ;-) :-) .

So , having been out of the loop for a while I hope to get right back in where I left off some time ago ..... in with the crowd that got me started ( and kept me young and laughing , BEFORE it went south and TURned Funky in the worst way ) in this wonderful world of Rolex inspired friendships !!

All the best ,

Alex

Hello Alex. It's damned well about time you got here. We were beginning to give you for lost to the dark side.

Everyone, Alex is one of the really good guys (even though he's another Canuck - but don't hold that against him. )

Dive in and join the fun. If you check around through the threads here, you'll find that the common theme is beating up on JJ. So feel free to take your best shots. You, too, can aspire to the rank of Tosser.
