Exactly so!!

While we're on the subject of separate areas, could we have one for nato straps? Where people could stick their tatty nylon pieces of tat on wholly inappropriate watches and everybody could congratulate them on their fine choice in private?
Ouch.While we're on the subject of separate areas, could we have one for nato straps? Where people could stick their tatty nylon pieces of tat on wholly inappropriate watches and everybody could congratulate them on their fine choice in private?
It could be right next to the Rolex subforum, where people could post pictures of wholly unremarkable watches and congratulate each other on their distinctive taste for buying exactly the same watch as everyone else on the forum.While we're on the subject of separate areas, could we have one for nato straps?

Bigger ouch
How about "Seiko corner", where like minded folk could talk about how great their watches really are in relative harmony, and on a monthly basis they can share the passaround kleenex cos they can't afford a Rolex
Yes, good idea. I have some further sub-forum suggestions:While we're on the subject of separate areas, could we have one for nato straps? Where people could stick their tatty nylon pieces of tat on wholly inappropriate watches and everybody could congratulate them on their fine choice in private?
- Rolex versus Grand Seiko threads
- Grand Seiko threads
- Bremont threads
- 'What watch shall I wear while on holiday / getting married / to my job interview' threads
I saw a thread on a forum recently about what watch to wear at a funeral.

**sounds of the glitch gun being loaded**
Only one left - what watch to wear in court?
What watch to wear when no one is looking?
I'd like to think this is a reference to the ED209 malfunction scene in Verheoven's superlative 'Robocop' but I'm pretty sure it isn't.
A fake Rolex, duh.
He really should have been thinking out side the box
...given the demographic, perhaps: 'What watch to wear on a first date with your sister?' is still a question for them to ponder.

Oh, novel response. "They don't wear a Rolex because they can't afford one." Firstly, your inference from my remark is #FAIL. Secondly, weak sauce is very weak. Old weak sauce is even weaker.How about "Seiko corner", where like minded folk could talk about how great their watches really are in relative harmony, and on a monthly basis they can share the passaround kleenex cos they can't afford a Rolex
Imagine the dilemma he must have had over his shoes, shirt, tie, suit or Hawaiian shirt and shorts. Best advice though was to think outside the box!!!
Good god. This was the best response in that thread:
Remarkable that such a ludicrous post gets so many replies, myself included ;)
There are equally ludicrous threads on here, maybe less frequently though.
Perhaps instead of a new subforum, EddieDaBoss could simply remove all forums except Sales Corner, George & Dragon, and the Bear Pit. There seems to be very little watch talk left here.
But,truth is still the truth. No 1 reason people criticise Rolex- sour grapes!
Kid yourself all you want.
More Kleenex?😃
I used to be a bit of a Rolex fanboy, but if you think the horological world starts and ends with the golden crown, then you need to get a life.
Eddie - please just set up that SC sub-forum and we can put this thread out of its misery. :) It's gone off at a useless tangent.
There you go again, pleading to the mystery being in the sky. Do you even have proof of this beings existence - where's the evidence (as with recent threads, Google and the like do not constitute evidence)

But I didn't criticise Rolex. You may have suffered a reading #FAIL.
I was criticising people who think they are cutting edge for liking Rolex. But thank you for stepping up to take the paintball to the forehead.
I think if that's what you want, you'd better start your own forum with your own rules.

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
On second thoughts it's great for all kinds of stuff, here's my on the way back from a F2F sale with Burnsey today.
Is that Burnsey between the shafts?
Oh well, I'll take that as a 'No' then... :(
Not much more to add on the thread then, apart from the stream of 'I told you so!' posts that will follow, nevertheless.
I didn't tell you so, but I thought it.

Rookie mistake.
3 years is hardly a rookie
Eddie's restrained comment gets my vote for suggestion of the month!
It is if you don't learn.
He thought that, but no one seems to bother with rules.
Nope that's been covered. If a defendant, a stainless steel or white gold watch on a black strap that is not recognisable to the general public.
Of course your going down if there's a WIS on the jury!
Well at least he got the Principal's attention, and that alone fills his little bosom with pride.
The fact that he got a spanking doesn't come into it.
Eddie is obviously in post Berth chilled out mode.....

dont see enough of those on SC - thankfully; not sure my wallet could cope!
The Bear Pit would be less fun as a rant-free zone, without Sales Corner staying as it is at the moment.
The fallout and griping on there, due to SC, is pure comedy gold. Please don't alter it........
We need a breakout group to brainstorm this.
Sycophant.
Put your tongue away.
Sycophant my arse! T'were fair comment t'were as the t'gaffer could have been quite rude in his observation to the OP but chose not to be!
Not much on today then?
Eddie, kavkav has finished warming your toilet seat for you. Will you require him to fold your quilted toilet paper too?Sycophant my arse! T'were fair comment t'were as the t'gaffer could have been quite rude in his observation to the OP but chose not to be!
Not much on today then?
Clearly not much on today as I mentioned earlier. Remember, the tablets go down easier with water.
I see you are a cyclist.
Bored now, end.

What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it. I don't like it any more than you .......
What's so civil about war anyway?
Ain't that fresh?
