freddy333 Posted November 12, 2008 Report Posted November 12, 2008 Perhaps, a part-time job (or 2) might be in order?
Gadget Man Posted November 12, 2008 Author Report Posted November 12, 2008 Perhaps, a part-time job (or 2) might be in order? I currently work around 65 hours week in my current job so I don't have time for another one
jkerouac Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Hate to break it to you, but you have a Rolex addiction as well. Stick to Rolexes and your addiction might run out of steam. Do not, I repeat, DO NOT start buying Pams or IWCs. Otherwise, I fear that you will get into really, really big trouble.
Toadtorrent Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Best solution to the addiction is to post pics of your V23 powered 6263...which I just saw in another thread. Ok...you're certified.
fakemaster Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Damn one month and you're in deep. All downhill from here.
sul Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 At first when I " discover" RWG I thought that I will buy as much as possible. No matter how close watch are to gen or what movement etc. it has. Today I buy only these exemplar what I really like and nothing more. Keep your mind clear and good luck!

Do not, I repeat, DO NOT start buying Pams or IWCs. Otherwise, I fear that you will get into really, really big trouble. NOW you tell me..... :D I now have two addictions: 1.Rep watches in general 2. Panerai The Panerai addiction is rapidly becoming the more expensive of the two... Gadget Man: I feel your pain. 6 months ago I had one worn-out watch. Now I have 12 with three more on the way. In addition, my wife now has 3 reps too (along with 3 gens). There is no escape
Gadget Man Posted November 13, 2008 Author Report Posted November 13, 2008 I think it's this forum that's the problem In total, I now have 16 watches
greg_r Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 I think it's this forum that's the problem In total, I now have 16 watches LOL - 16 watches in a month. You really do have it bad. Kudos! My wife just bought me a 40-capacity watch box (I already have a 10 capacity box). I'm going to TRY not to fill it, but no guarantees And yes, I blame RWG too

Aidan Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Try to look on the bright side you seem to be keeping the Chinese economy going single handedly.
greg_r Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 No I have 16 in total, of which 7 have been bought in the last 6 weeks Ah okay - that's not quite so bad
sp12 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) Hello, bros. I have bought six reps and three low prices gens and one rather expensive gen in the last four months. The money I had for this are now spent. The urge for more reps are not, and I want to order again. The looking around the web sites and then the sweet feeling when you see online that your order has been released from customs. And then, the wonderful feeling when you open the package and try your new rep on your wrist. I love it! Edited November 13, 2008 by sp12

jody73 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 Hmm. I thought I was hooked, but it seems like I have a way to go as I only have two reps. Will probably try to mod my UPO with a better or gen dial as soon as I feel confident enough. Good luck Cheers jody
StormTooper4 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Posted November 13, 2008 It happens Dude, just ride with it, and wait until you start getting into straps and Mod's then you're done for sure ST4
