Check Out The FAQ!
Guys, if you haven't heard or noticed yet, go check out the FAQ Forum. There is a brand new post by JBHII- it's a video on how to post pics to WTF. In my opinion it's somewhat easier to follow than the sticky we have at the top of our own forum here! At least I found it easier.

Credit where credits due
I 've just got the bill for work I had done on a 6309 & my old 8229. 2 services, fit new Bezels & crystals, polish cases and repair the day/date on the 6309. Total $200 - - - I reckon that's brilliant. This probably won't be any good to anybody who's not in Australia but the company is called DAYCO in Perth 61-8-94810618. Thanks SeanO for the number.

Incoming - My New Favorite ¡°Personal Jeweler¡± Came Through
I guess I have developed a great relationship with one of the ¡°Personal Jeweler¡±, that¡¯s her official title at a SoCal AD near my work. She¡¯s the same person who back in December offered me a BLNR and said they are really hard to come by, at that time I thought that she was just making up a story to get me to buy the watch. I did like the BLNR that day but didn¡¯t pull the trigger. I came back a week after for it but she said their security guard bought the BLNR. I completely regretted that I hesitated in buying the watch. I told my ¡°Personal Jeweler¡± to call me as soon as they get another BLNR in stock. So my ¡°PJ¡± calls me up a couple of days later saying that her boss won¡¯t add me to the waiting list because I don¡¯t have a transaction history with their store. I was like fine there are other ADs in the area, I¡¯ll just try my luck there. I¡¯ve been visiting 3 ADs in my area for about a month without any luck. One AD wanted 50% down payment with about 4-6weeks ETA, I didn¡¯t like tha

New to Rolex and want to buy Daytona and Sky Dweller
A bit of about me- I have liked watches for a while, and didn't knew much about the mechanical watches until recently. I have owned quartz and digital watches all my life, and for some reason I keep losing them. The oldest watch I have is a Swatch Chrono.But, mechanical watches are addictive! It has been less than a year that I got into Mechanical watches. My first mechanical/automatic was a Seiko Alpinist (got it from Japan), and my second one was a Tissot (got it from online dealer, no manufacturer warranty).However, I got into mechanical watches after seeing the new the Rolex AirKing. I wanted to get that one, and then I moved on to DateJust 40mm, and I think both are great watches. But then I researched more and more and I now I am looking into getting the Daytona 116503 with black or champagne dial and get the Sky Dewller SS in Black or Blue dial (if I can get my hands on it in a year or so. The two tone SD in black is available but don't like that combination much). I'll buy it n
