Dreaming of a Sea Dweller.

Hello to all. It took me 20 years to buy my Harley, so not sure how long it is going to take me to own my dream watch.
Forum has a lot on offer so I will be doing some reading over the next several weeks.
Cheers.

Do other folks suffer from this. You look at pictures of the watch you have dreamed about and feel a great sense of wanting and desire to own such a precision instrument. Then the little man in the back pokes his head up and disses the idea.
Am i hearing voices and going insane or is this the early clinical signs of rolexitism. Any thoughts would be appreciated :-)

Congrats! It's a great feeling, eh? I too had to wait 20+ years for my Sea Dweller ... fantastic feeling once the dream is realized.

Oh, and we need pics, or it didn't happen!

Cheers!
Bill
