    You might be beating yourself up for $50.
    You don't know much about male fetishes and expensive watches. Seriously, its a thing. I am a bit afflicted.

    Oops, nope, it appears it's me that's full of it. Seriously? Wonder if that's changed?

    hey it would be a laugh if it was a fake huh? Actually sorry, maybe that's insensitive.

    Anyway, hope your missus finds more work soon.
    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    If it has been appraised by someone (and particularly if it has the box, papers and whatnot - stuff like the original strap with all the links) then it is very unlikely to be a fake.

    how about this bad boy?

    that price is not a misprint. And its not even the most expensive watch I have heard of, nor the one with the most complications.


    I am a big fan of Christopher Ward watches as a balance of looks, quality, price and performance.

    This, IMO, is the coolest watch ever:

    anyway: OT: OP should tell us what sort of Rolex it is.

    It was 20 odd years ago it was appraised so who knows, increase or decrease I don't really care...at least I've still got it

    A mate brought a supposedly Rolex whilst on holiday in Singapore a few years back, got home and was flashing it about thinking he was king big....one night over a few beers asked him if it had all it's certification papers to which he replied nah just reciept & box, so I showed him my rolex & it's papers....sort of burst his bubble a bit

    Not really my thing but if it is genuine and reasonably priced I might be interested. A tenner and some Salt & Vinegar?

    I must live up to my (presumed) Hassidic stereotype so make it $8 to start. We're negotiating....
