You’ve been diagnosed with Watchatitis, it’s a chronic lifelong condition and there is no known cure

Congrats on an excellent pickup. Enjoy it knowing you broke your own rules to get it :)

Sorry to tell you that I had to report you. In this day and age we really need to protect ourselves from flippers like you... :Chuckle:

Back to the topic ! Great combo you have there. Enjoy

Are you serious or is this a joke?

Aaaah, I might be slow. Flipping pictures not watches. LOL

Sorry, just a little jumpy. Never know when a new sheriff hits the forums. LOL

Just saying that having a grail and liking watches are two different things. I swore I was done but I've added some new pieces (and not necessarily Rolex). Finding a beautiful 16710 would likely make me bite as well. So, imho, there's nothing wrong with you.
