Hi all,
Just got home home a couple of hours ago for New York.
YES......its straped on my wrist as I type.
A brand new SUB LV!!

I picked it up at an AD in New Jersey, that Mark set me up with. the second day I flew in to New york.

One thing I can say is.....I LIKE!!!!!

Thinking that I might at some point want to have the option of changing the bezel insert to the classic black, I also paid a visit ot Rolex NY.

I simply poped the insert out of my Classic Sub and told them how sad I was to have lost it

I'll post some pics after I get my camera unpacked..

I trust Ron took good care of you in NJ. Ron is a super guy. My cousin Bill has been doing business with him for many moons.

I wonder if he unloaded the 3rd one yet?

Anyways .... hope you plugged the website and ofcourse me. Looking for that phone call letting me know my SS Daytona has arrived. LOL

Oh, Mark, I am so sorry for you. First you start TRF as a lark. Then you go out and actually buy your first Rolex (a kermit to boot), and now you are hooked. You haven't had your first one for 6 months and you're already waiting to get your next one. You realize that you are among the chronically addicted. And there is no hope of a cure. Medical science has been trying to isolate the Rolexitis virus for years without success. Now that you've caught the bug, there is no hope. You are terminal, pal. I am so sorry to have to be the one to break it to you.

Nice one Alex - enjoy it!!

Just wanted to thank Mark and Alex for the kind words.

I'll try to post a picture of the vintage Daytona when I get a chance.

Any friend of theirs is a friend of mine, right after the normal 90 day trial period.

Welcome to TRF, Ron. Glad Mark and Alex convinced you to join our fun little group.

Can't wait to see a pic of the vintage Daytona.

Welcome aboard Ron! You do realise that within the next week the WHO's going to label you as a breeding ground for Bacillus Rolexis LV strain and slap warning labels all over you?

Congratulations on the Kermit, Alex!
