BODYBUMP (Oscar) = TRUST WAS EARNED, NOT GIVEN!!!!
Bodybump (Oscar)
I would like to thank-you for such a great experience with buying the first Rolex (16613 TT Sub "M") watch for my husband, for our 1 year anniversary. You made the on-line uneasy experience so easy and great for me and I am very grateful !!! Just to give everyone the whole experience for me, I will tell the "somewhat" short version, so you can appreciate how much Oscar helped me..... and how much I appreciate Oscar. My husband has spoke of two things since we have been together that he has always wanted and someday would have (besides me of course :) One being a very expensive corvette and the other more important being the exact watch I bought from Oscar. A few months ago my husband was involved in an incident which could have taken his life, and I realized that life is too short and every moment that we share with the ones we love should always be cherished......and I wanted to get him the watch he always wanted. I was about to purchase a used 1999 "A" model with repairs needed for 5. Then I found this forum and found out that I could buy a new one for a little more. Because I am in the law enforcement field and deal with crooks and lies everyday, I was very skeptical about the wiring of money and dealing with people with on-line purchases and poor Oscar caught the 100 questions associated with this and he answered them all with patience and much understanding. I checked out Oscar with a fine tooth comb and was 99% confident when I wired him the money before receiving the watch. I even told Oscar that I would be taking the watch to a dealer to have it checked so that I knew it was authentic, although after seeing it along with all the paperwork I was sure, I still took it to satisfy that last 1 %. As I had felt and hoped, I was not dissapointed, OSCAR EARNED MY TRUST!!!!! Thank-you so much Oscar for such a great experience and for such professionalism. You are the man! Because the 1st year anniversary is celebrated by paper or wood, I bought him some cigars in two different wooden boxes and the store gave me a empty cigar box to put the rolex box inside of as the last box of cigars he would open. I typed in different cigar store websites into our home computer so he would see in the history that I had been checking on cigars and of course he thought I was getting him cigars. The look on his face was priceless and full of emotion as he opened the last box of cigars to see no cigars, yet a box with the rolex symbol on top. He said with a confusing look "What is this?" I told him I didn't know so he removed the box to find the green box with the gold symbol and then opened it and it hit him. He was SHOCKED! I will always remember how great the moment of surprise and happiness was when he opened the box to see his new TT Submariner "Bluesy", I will try to attach a few pictures of the wonderful 1 year anniversary. Thank-you again Oscar for making our 1 year anniversary such a pleasant experience. OSCAR YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!! THANK-YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hard2decide, thanks for sharing with us.
We do have a great bunch here. I bought my wife the 10P diamond Ladies Date Just for our 30th and this year got her the YG/SS no date DJ for our 33rd. Rolexes are meant for those very special events. |

Thanks to all for the congrats on the anniversary. I think this has been the best purchase I have ever made. I hope the excitement of my husband realizing that there is a Rolex on his wrist never fades. It makes me very happy to still see him gazing at his new watch weeks later.
Oscar, I kind of miss pestering you with so many questions and texts, maybe I will have to start looking for a watch for myself :) |

After THAT story? I'd give Oscar a kidney without a thought!
Now...cigars AND a Rolex? Listen...if you ever find yourself NOT married.....God forbid, but if...oh, nevermind. My wife lets me buy Rolexes (and Omegas, and Tag Heuers, and oddball old Swiss automatics....). You two live a long and happy life together. May he wake every morning knowing how very fortunate he is. mark |
