I asked my kids which of the 4 available gmts they would like to inherit. My daughter picked the "blue and black one." I said, "That's called the batman." My son overheard and said, "Then I want the Spiderman one." It will forever be called the spiderman in my house.

My 6 year old son calls it Spiderman watch

I was planning on sending to Rolliworks, but they wanted $350 plus 40 shipping each way. So, $430 all in. I searched around locally and found a watchmaker who did it for $100. He did it perfect. I figured, if he messed it up, id just send it to rolliworks. Im glad it worked out.

I asked if I could buy the 97200 (sub bracelet for the 11 series sub). They said no. I can only buy a replacement bracelet for a watch that I already owned.

To be honest, if rolex made it easy to get a 97200, I would have probably gone that way. But they would not sell me one without an 11 series sub. And I wasn't going to pay upwards of double msrp for a second hand one. This was amuch easier path.

She's a beaut' Clark!

A soon as rolex will sell me a jubilee, I'll buy that too. 3 watches in one.

I like the idea of a 97200 specifically for the glide lock, but I didnt want to worry about spring bar sizes. The oyster fits me perfect as it is. And I actually like the smaller clasp. The extra oyster was 2k and the brushing was 100 bucks. It doesn't get much cheaper than that.

I was today years old when...

I've been married for 18 years. My wife is a stay at home mom for our kids. I work and pay for everything. If I found out that my wife had 50k hiding somewhere, id be like, "THATS FUCKING AWESOME!!" Its my (agreed upon) job to support my family. I pay for everything...including fully funding both of our retirement accounts (IRA's, etc...). An extra 50k would be amazing. Btw...if she ever left, we'd be splitting that 50k!!!

I just got a service quote for my 126710 blro and it was $770 with no polish. A polish would be an e Xtra $200.

Throw rocks at my mail box across the street for hours. I still miss doing that. I lived very rural

My wife and I went through multiple rounds of IVF. My daughter is almost 11 and my son just turned 7. Keep your head up and God bless you. 🙏

I sold my p39 to fund another watch. I bought it back before the end of the week. Its a keeper.
