Rolex sightings on my trip
On the flight to Fla last Thurs, the guy in the aisle across from me had on a White Dialed SS Daytona. He was young and it was real. Didn't get into conversation with him though. In south Fla, a Rolex is like nothing to them. Every place you looked, someone has one on. All shapes and sizes. TT, SS 18kt. Went to Hamilton's jewelery store in the PGA mall in the Lakeworth-Jupiter area. They had one of every model Rolex in one variation or another, with the exception of an LV and a SS Daytona. The girl said these come in and they make phone calls and they go. She was very nice and not pushy. She asked what my next one was going to be and I told her a SS/Plat YM someday. In the Cleveland airport yesterday I saw two of these, one black GMTII and one FAKE balck dialed Daytona. I guess when you're not used to seeing then everyday you really don't know how many people have them.

Isn't funny how we stare at other peoples wrists? I do it all day long.

At first I thought I was weird for doing it but now I look at it like this. Women always check out other women's diamonds right? I just think we are more discreet about it

Daren, I would imagine in your line of work you see an aweful lot of nice watches. Do your clients generally have 'expensive' watches on their wrists?

I do have two students that are watch guys. Neither one ever wears a Rolex, although both have multiple in their collection. One wears an AP Roo for his daily and the other wears a VC OS Chrono, that baby is SWEET!! ![]()

When I come on a holiday to Dallas, which one should I come with - the YM or the Exp-II?
