Hello from the burbs of Philadelphia

Hello. This is my first time on the forum. I visit TZ frequently and hope to do the same here. I have owned 2 DJs a 16013 and the 16233 that I traded it for and currently wear. It didn't take long to figure out that trading is not the way to go but that owning more than 1 Rolex is much better. Just trying to reconcile additional Rolex purchases with my guilty feelings about putting it towards college for the kids! If you have any suggestions for getting over that one let me know!

Hello and a warm welcome to our fine forum! Your question is one that I cannot answer, your heart must answer that. As much as I love my watches, they would go in an instant for things more important like to the benefit of my family. Please post often and join the fun. Don't expect 'black tie' but faded jeans and Aloha shirts. But both are present here and occupied by nice people with vast knowledge of watches and life!

No, JJ, it's not what you would do without we guys. Rather, it's what we would do without you?

(OK, guys, I've just served up a slow ball pitch. Does anyone want to take a swing at it? )

Welcome to TRF, NYY. Glad you joined our merry madhouse. If you've looked around here, you know that we like to have fun, but there are some real gurus here who can answer most horological questions for you.


BTW, what's a NYY doing in Philly?

Are you selling it, Coco? If so you could advertise it under our Buy/Sell section. Quite a few guys out here who would probably pounce on it.

List price was US$7,100. Don't know what the new price is after the hike. In NZ the price of this TT Sub has gone up by NZ$500 = US$330.
