Spoken like a true Highlander!

I started with no Rolex when I joined, and now I have one. But this forum has made me want more than the one and one day I will break down......

Jimbits76 · 20 July 2008, 04:18 AM

This forum has cost me a bomb also.

Not from the acquisition of new Rolex watches....just the payment of the legal settlement fees to cover all the people I have upset with my posts!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have not purchased a Rolex since joining TRF, nor do I plan to do so in the near future. The members at TRF have provided me with great information about my present Rolexes, as well other aspects of life with a Rolex. For that, I thank you!!!

I only have 2 Rolex's but i do have a variety of others, all together I have 26 watches!!!!! I'm sure if i hang around here any longer the 2 will turn into 12> And that's a good thing!!!!!

Rawhyde · 20 July 2008, 07:27 AM

TRF has cost me some money. Well, actually JJ cost me some money. I was happy with my meager collection of an Air King and a Tudor Chronograph. I joined TRF and enjoyed the fun for a while, but JJ kept tormenting me with pictures of his then beloved but now long gone Bluesy.

I kept seeing all the Bluesy pics and it kept torturing me, so I saved my money and finally bought one. Thankfully, I got it before the last price increase!

Same here. After my first one, I joined the forum. Since then, I bought four more and one more for my wife. Problem is -- I want more.

Great Thread TR
Sorry I'm so late in joining in

Since joining TRF I have bought 1 vintage DJ , 1 modern SS DJ, 1 Tudor Chrono. to join my Bluesy and Gold DJ, Breitling, Omega etc etc .

Also bought the wife a Midsize platty

Now I'm next on the list for a GMT IIc .

Even though I bought my wife a new Rollie recently she wants me to give up TRF and would rather I watch porn on the net. (i cracked up when she said that) .

:c heers:
