Auckland mini gtg...
Hi guys,
Don (sub2004) and I decided to have a mini get together in the St. Lukes mall this afternoon over some coffee. He wore his Panny (he also has a Sub 16610). We first went over to Partridge Jewellers to check out some watches. He fell in love with the white Exp-II and then went to the NIKE shop in the St. Lukes mall where I picked up the polo I'm wearing!! Some pics... ...and surprise, surprise, JJ sporting a Panny!!

Yes, we had an excellant time.!!
And to boot, JJ got me a brand new still in the box Rolex 2007 wall calendar and a rolex A4 Large catalogue!!! Sorry for the hairy monster look, my firms on legal vacation so i have 2 weeks off which means no shaving and no suits!!! For you UK and US members, SAKS auckland is having a sale, versace and armani black business suits down to $999nz which is about $300 pounds and if flying out another 12.5% off. Mmmm Exp II, i just saw the UK retail, NZ is $2000 plus cheaper for this watch. I thought of checking it out in the UK but if i had to, i would rather get it in Auckland. Mmmm... JJ's tt blue sub...... always liked that watch, its got the bling factor. The dealer had 2 new GMT II also. Happy New Year all. |

Well, I only had it on for like a few seconds. It was on its original leather band and felt big compared with the Rolex. But I have large wrists, so it did feel very comfy and actually looked damn good!!

In some societies, that would sound dirty.

JJ,
I don't want to be the first to sow the seeds of the TT Blue Sub sale, but imo you're a pannie man and just don't know it, yet! It's 50:50 you'll sell the TT Blue by Feb. 1st, I say! |

I'm laying odds that the 16610 goes first. If the TT goes, Zemina will kill him

JJ,
Nice pics of 2 great smiles and 2 great watches, glad you boys had a good time at the GTG! Hey Don maybe you could move some of that excess facial hair over to JJ's cranium?

Although I'm fairly new to this forum. I think I share some equal "vibes" for a lack of better words here when I say I believe the TT blue is here to stay. What do think JJ?
